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.

Re: New parking spot

Nice. Are there jacks on it to lift the wheels off? Like on an alignment rack.

It came with a jack tray but the jack is an add-on. I opted to wait on it since the brakes and suspension are already done on the truck. I'll keep my eye's open for a used one.

Thanks. I use the boat every weekend sometimes twice a week. The truck has not been tagged in close to 10 years. I have had the truck for 25 and it was my daily driver for quite a while. The restoration was started last year with suspension and brakes. One day I'll get it all done and have a period correct tow rig for the boat.

Re: New parking spot

I wish I had built my shop high enough to have one of those . My next shop will have higher ceilings just for that purpose .
