53 chevy pu air suspension? help!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bad4587 · 08-26-2007, 09:35 PM

I just started on my 53 chevy pu build and want to narrow down the decision on front and rear air suspension before i get to that phase of my build. I want to slam my truck only to be able to drive slammed at one point, and be able to lift and have the best suspension on the freeway. There's so many air suspensions out there and different ways of install, i'm getting a bit over whelmed on even which way to start looking. Can anybody help shed some light on this confussious grasshopper!!! Thanks for you time!!

Defining a budget will be a good start... do you have a "budget" yet?

Here are some pics of my 51 truck. It has a camaro sub frame front and a back half 4 link rear,shock waves up front, and can-style bags on rear. It also has 18s and 20s and it lays the body easily. These are ride height pics. The system is air ride technologies with a quarter inch line. It's not fast when moving up and down, but it drives nice. My buddy Nate Porter built this truck too!

OK Dino, how many trucks do you have? and which body styles aren't covered?

All he needs is a tri-five and a 67-72!

I am sure they will be in his future.
