Re: Air Ride Install - '69 Chevrolet SWB Stepside

figured out the valve placement and installed them tonight. wow, brass is expennnnnsive! I placed and mounted the valves in this manner in case I need to pull one for maintenance. I tried to build this in a modular fashion, meaning you can take pieces out without dismantling the entire system....... and I can add another compressor later by simply adding a mounting plate. I also took thermal expansion and contraction into mind when I used air line from the tank to the valves. I wanted to hard pipe this connection, but went with flexible air line. call me technical, I know. sorry, I'm an M.E.

next on the list is wiring the valves and compressor. should be getting to that and posting pics this weekend.

getting closer!
