I loaded up the ramp truck yesterday with my 2 Schwinn chopper bikes and 1 pedal car to take to the Greenville SC Car's & Coffee this morning. It didn't make it but I got it back home and drove the 71 instead.

When we got back home I looked at everything under the hood and the only thing I could figure was the HeI was still running on the factory resistor wire. Sure enough after pulling the harness out and unwrapping it I found what I had thought. Stripped it out to the fuse block and re wired it to the HEI and it is running nice now. Maybe next month it will make it.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
