no gauges....sensors at each wheel, truck sits perfectly level at all times, if the load increases or decreases it compensates for it.

Re: My 86 build

scored this little junk yard jewel today.....I just couldn't leave it sitting there....one tiny little chip out of the lid, and some rusty chrome trim, but otherwise it's in great condition.
