Cool Finally 67 SS wheel done! Pics

Man this has taken me all day just about. I started at 3PM and just walked in the house at 12 midnight! It was a long process but it's in and working great. I ran into a little problem on the install and ended up tearing my whole wiring out of the thing just about.
Well I unplug the horn so I could get everything hooked up without blowing it every second I touched it. So I get everything done hook the ground backup and nothing....Dang! So I pull everything back off and double check it... everything seems OK.
So I put it all back and nothing again.

WTH... so I go and look at the horns them selves. They look good so I get my test light out and no power to the relay... They worked the last time I used them so I start looking. I looked under the dash under the hood and nothing seemed wrong. I have all the relays under my cold air intake so that all had to come out to get to them. So while I'm trying to figure this out I decide to try the head lights since they all feed off the same main power wire.

I finally checked the headlights.... dang no lights either! What the heck is going on here. So I finally traced it out and had put a 20amp fuse in line with the hot wire suppying my relays! Guess what, it was blowed!!

So I get the 20 amp fuse out and replace it with a new one. I'm hooking the relays back up and what do I do. I touched 2 of the wires and pop fuse blows again! Now I have a 30amp supplying the relays and everything is working and it's finally installed.
Sorry for such a long post but man it was driving me crazy trying to figure it out.

Anyway here you go.






I'll get a video of the chevy horns tomorrow.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
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.
