Ride Tech does. Early Classic Enterprises did once upon a time (not sure if they still do). I believe CPP offers air ride stuff but I thinks it's from Ride Tech. There's several board supporting vendors that are Ride Tech dealers that can get you what you need. Check out the Supension Marketplace section....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

I do not see anything that is a bolt in kit that the average mechanic can do in his/her garage without power tools and/or a welder.

If you do go with the ridetech kit talk to some of our vendors on here most of them do carry ridetechs stuff and get you a discount i bet.

A complete, everything needed to install, simple kit comes @ a price. Costs can be cut by reducing the complexity of the system but then you're doing more than the Average Joe.

Were you wanting just the bags & shocks (basic set-up) or were you looking to update things as well like better truck arms & adjustibility (advanced set-up that's tunable)?

I was not thinking of myself, but the the person without a lot of tools. I spent very little on a complete mechanical system for my truck but I also have a complete fab shop. Again I was just thinking of the end user without a lot of tools and the 2 links you provided are perfect. Thanks again.
