I was working on my daughters truck today when I had a idea. That's scary thought huh!

Well I been thinking and decided to try it on a old set of handles I have.

The handles have been broke for awhile know. The normal breakage of the button. So I blasted them in the parts blaster. Then I took a wire wheel to the button and the flat on the out side handle.
I'm thinking either body color for the rest of the handle are maybe the Chrome paint in a can you buy. Leave the button and flat as is.
I also blasted the inside door handles and then wire wheeled them also. They will be cleared as is.
I show the button fix next.

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.
