Well i finally put some air bags in the rear of my truck,i got to the shop at 8:30 and got outa there around 3ish.I had to ditch the exaust from the muffler back(i already miss the tips),re-route some brake lines made a bridge from frame rail to frame rail for the upper mounts and used some air ride s-10 lower mounts,unfortunatly i did have to cut 6 very small(just big enough for a socket) acsess holes in the bed.Seems to have worked out well.I sorta got lazy and left the shocks for tomorrow,man what a mistake its very bouncy-in fact i can bounce the back by hand and the tires lift enough to move it side to side.It seems i little lower with the bags compared to the air shocks but the nicest thing is now im running 40 psi in the rear compared to 140-160 with the air shocks which was probally hard on my compressor.I think once i get the shocks in where i want'em it should stiffin things up abit(i hope). |

Yes ill definatly pop in mabye next weekend,i got the shocks in but lost 1/4 inch of drop(they were binding)-so re did them today and everything works great.I guess the true test will be Vans. crappy roads and the autoX saturday if i get in.Oh and the air shocks are free-2 used and 1 new, you can even have all my old air lines I ran all new stuff for the bags. |
