Ramp truck got a aux set of batteries installed and charge off the truck battery. I also installed a 3 gallon air tank with compressor for road side assistance if needed.
I think Ill buy a small box to cover the batteries and store some rigging stuff also. I have the tilt column working on it also. I found out today the bowl on the tilt is aluminum . I used plumbers putty to fill up the holes. I'll give it a couple of days to harden and see how it does sanding it.
I came up with a easy way to keep the bowl from moving also. I took the 2 screws that hold the neutral safety switch and placed longer screws in to hold it in place.

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.
