Some pics of my truck in front of a vintage looking gas station

This place is by my house and looks like an old Texaco station but It is really a front for a body shop. I've always wanted to take a pic there and today I was driving around so I thought why not.

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.

Re: Some pics of my truck in front of a vintage looking gas station

Thanks everyone. I want to do some more lettering on it but I can't seem to find the time. I want it to look like a full on parts hauler of the era.

I wish we had a place like that for pictures. Your truck looks right at home there.

Re: Some pics of my truck in front of a vintage looking gas station

In the last pic the truck actually looks good. Not bad for a $950 retired farm truck. I really want to drop it 3/5 and maybe some wheels at some point. It would really look good then. IMO.
