Re: The 86er project...

Hey man nice truck... I shaved the side blinker lights, looks pretty cool..

I was on a budget so i just pieced together my airbag kit.. Still under progress.. My latest idea was to turn a 30 gal aircompresser tank into my Airbag tank/Gas tank.. just welding a plate in the middle.. Gonna see how that goes..
