Lowered my truck with grunion fabrication air bag suspension kit
I installed a Grunion Fabrication air ride and a front disc conversion also painted the frame with POR-15 and added a train horn since I already had the compressor and air tank for the airbags.
It dropped the body about 7 to 8 inches. It's not sitting on the floor but it makes a drastic difference in the look of the truck, for a fraction of the price and work. I am very happy with it. I also had to relocate the mufflers and changed the exhaust tips. SS-7 airbags Gauges and paddles for each bag Compressor 2-1/2 gallon tank All necessary hoses, fittings, and hardware Front and rear Mcgaughy shocks Mcgaughy drop spindles Mcgaughy panhard bar Mcgaughy C notch Mcgaughy 12" Front Disc Brake Kit; 6x5.5 Bolt Pattern with calipers See before and after pictures how she sits

Re: Lowered my truck with grunion fabrication air bag suspension kit
Looks sweet. good job. I am doing a 6 inch body drop and a C-Notch on my 78 before bags.
Do you mind me asking how much were the bags/air management components? I am about to pull the trigger and don't want to waste any of my money on bad parts if I can help it. Thanks, Wayne

Re: Lowered my truck with grunion fabrication air bag suspension kit
I gotta say "I love your color combo". I did a 68 truck last year and sold it as soon as I got it done.
It looks like it is real close in color. Mine was the factory color for the 68.
