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: Truck Upgrade

I wished I hadn't seen this thread, I have three trucks and about five of these motors laying around from 4.8's to 6.0's from trucks I've junked. Now the wheels are a churnin. Is the rack on this truck off of this body style truck as well that the kit uses?

Re: Truck Upgrade

Hugger,
You can get the rack from Brothers or No Limit (same kit). Little over a grand when all said and done. Drives really nice.

What does the rack get u over a normal power steering setup if I may ask other than the cool factor!
I do like the fact of the cool part though for sure. Just wondering what the advantages were of it.
