Re: rear air bag set-up on trailing arms

Hey Don, I was yacking with Nate @ Porterbuild a few days ago and he mentioned that he was going to look into making a lower shim like the one you see in the post you linked up above. I was interested in the same deal.

I mocked mine up to the truck with a body washer last week and meant to come in here and ask you other guys what you're using yourselves. So - what are you guys using?

Or go to your local HD/Lowes place & get a piece of 2" x .250" thick steel. Cut of a couple of pieces 2x2, drill the appropriate 3/8" hole in the center, & have some metal left over for making misc brackets/tabs @ a later time.

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.
