Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Looks great Shawn, glad the airbags worked out for you. Having the hats does make for a really easy install especially if you decide to go more extreme sometime in the future.

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Hey Shawn can you let me know how it rides. I'm thinking of bags for the rear of my truck and keeping static front. I don't have a notch for rear but looking for better ride from the rear and not wanting to notch thanks.

Just think how high it would be without them? I run 50 psi in my blazer rear bags. The roof makes it weight slightly more,... but I still hate how high my ride height is.

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Man I wounded if that was the gmc that I saw on the side of the road this morning between Clements and lockford with the driver side front tire off? No one was around. I was on my way to Tracy for daughters softball game. I remember that white grill with red lettering

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Well guys I took it for a good little drive over rail road tracks and lots of bumps. She rides very well and never once bottomed out. I am quite happy with the bags

Re: Shawno72's long overdue 68 daily driver build thread
Well the bags were empty this morning when I woke up So I got out the soapy water and pulled all the line connections and realized I only cut one end square So I corrected that and we will see how it goes. If they go empty again I'll go back to the springs untill I can do a compressor and tank.
