Hey Dino... any tips or ideas of how to build a bagged suspension that has 1 ride setting? (height)
I have played with schrader valves and even tried to come up with a switching method but kind of abandonded the project until just recently. my wife wants me to get back to work on her truck.

That's cool, I am not looking for gauges either. I want it at 1 ride height and that's it... Like a factory air ride setup. ;)
I got all the suspension and all the air ride stuff off of a lincoln including a disk brake 9" rear that I am going to try and utilize in my 63 Chevy short bed build for my wife. :metal:
I also got some big wheels with new tires on them... 19" by 10's I think...
I want the truck tucked neatly around the tires and a good drivable ride height.... just a clean simple no hassle build..
I like your build..

Check in to the leveling valve for a 18 wheeler like a peterbuilt I've seen them used on the 4x4 trucks with the bags valve lifts the truck and a flip leaver to drop and there simple im not sure on the name of them though

So...
Are there wedge shims of some sort that corrects pinion angle for trailing arms?
If so, who makes them?

Wow I don’t get out much. I’m out in the garage playing around with trinkets and you’re five pages into yet another new build! Very impressive and beautiful work!
