One more question. How far is the shock from the frame rail? If you were to use a KYB gas adjust would I have to cut the shocks upper protecting steel sheeve off? It might be tight, Do you have a vertical picture from the back view?

plenty of room, the inside edge of the shock eye is 1 1/4" from the frame rail. Or, the shock centerline is 1 15/16" from the rail. no need to trim anything.

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.
