Cool Re: Cruise control button???

Yes it looks to be one from the picture. Sorry I didn't answer you the other night but didn't understand what you were wanting. I thought you posted the picture just to show me the cruise lever!

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.

Wink Re: Cruise control button???

I'm not a 100% sure but pretty sure these trucks only had cruise they didn't have the resume and coast stuff like the later models. So the button in the end of the lever would be all you had. Just push it in when you were at the speed you wanted that was it.

Re: Cruise control button???

I believe you are right. If I would have noticed it when I drove it I would have tried it. Excited to see if it even works I'm a quadriplegic so this will bring great relief to holding my hand controls for long distances

Re: Cruise control button???

That looks like maybe an add on cruise setup, the 72's I've seen with cruise had the cruisemaster button down below the gauge bezel

I agree with Randy that is not a 1972 factory cruise button.
