Default All-new DSC Sport Air Lift System!

DSC Sport is proud to announce that we have finished development on our all-new Air Lift Systems for compatibility with Tractive DDA struts! The Air Lift System is available in two packages:

1) Airlift Option - For vehicles with factory-optioned front lift systems. Adapts existing Tractive DDA front struts for compatibility with factory air lift system.

2) Standalone Air Lift System - For all vehicles fittted with Tractive front struts. Adapts existing Tractive DDA front struts for compatibility with the all-new DSC Sport air lift system.

PM for specialty introductory pricing. The system is priced so that a set of Tractive coilovers, DSC Sport controller, AND the Standalone Air Lift System will cost less than retrofitting a factory front axle lift kit from the dealer.

We will be following up with pictures and more information after the PRI Trade Show.

Attending PRI?
Visit us and learn more about the Air Lift System at booth #2610!

Will the stand alone only fit tractive shocks or will it fit other aftermarket shocks?

Any pics of the setup to see how large the pump is for placement reasons? And what is the time it takes to go to full lift?

The Air Lift mechanism is integrated to the bottom of the Tractive front strut in the same manner as the OEM FAL to the OEM strut. This design doesn't take up any usable stroke of the strut and doesn't mandate the use of shorter spring. It would be mighty difficult to merge the mechanism onto a strut built to different spec.

Also, the Stand Alone Air Lift system is controlled by DSC module via the CAN-bus.

One of the DSC guys will answer your questions soon. Currently they are occupied with prepping for the PRI show. I am sure they will post pics of the Air Lift system display for the show. I can tell you it is a very healthy size pump.

Tractive will be handling final design and production of most of the components for the Air Lift packages, as they are for use specifically with their products.

They have finished production on the Air Lift Option (for vehicles with factory air lift). The Standalone Air Lift System will be available soon, but no firm dates as of yet.

Hi Tom and Jordan

My car came with a factory lift kit, so I have the compressor etc..

I removed all of that system and I am running the DSC Module with Tractive DDA shocks.

I gather I would need to have the existing front shocks modified/replaced to enable this system is that correct?

Correct. It's a $195 option to modify the front struts for compatibility plus shipping (unless you're local, of course).

Can this system work on a car that doesn't have the front lift option from factory? If yes, how do we control the front lift? Thanks!
