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.

Cool Re: 12 volt compressor's...which one

I think I found one. Don't need a lot of PSI for 2 rear helper bags. I found a pump on E-bay for less than $100.00.
Going to the Myrtle Beach show this weekend so I'm going to check there first and if nobody has anything I will order it.

Re: 12 volt compressor's...which one

It won't take a large compressor to fill the helper bags. Did you want something that has in-cab controls? Here is a kit with a compressor and in-cab control.

Re: 12 volt compressor's...which one

I like viar stuff, even if it seems overkill for the setup sometimes. The stuff just WORKS. I put mine through hell in my s10, and even completely exposed to WI winter and the salt etc than comes with it, it always worked even down to -7 on my birthday. Just make sure to buy the higher quality weather-pack relay holder....cuz that thing will freeze.

I got the cab stuff covered. I'm using the old Delco pleasure lift guage my dad gave me and I drilled it and put a momentary switch in it to run the pump.

Hey man, I will see you at the show this weekend then! I will be there Friday (sorry for the hi-jack). I have a blue 71 longbed with black 20" wheels and a white roof.

Perfect.... I would just run the 275c compressor then. It runs $149.
