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 pics of the kids patina 68 c10 lowered with new wheels

wow, that sounds all to familiar. I got my 72 from a little town called Weyer's cave VA. Not far at all from Harrissonburg, and mine too was sitting in the middle of a field. He was the 1 and only owner, bought it new. He claimed it sat in his barn since 1992 and he drug it out into the field so it could be seen 4 sale from his rd. I'm not sure who was gonna see it there considering his rd was a gravel rd and he was 1 of 5 farms on it. Also it was a good 8 miles off of the closest paved rd. I aint complaining though, cuz I got my truck from there and I love it! I searched for almost 2 years to find her and when we met, I knew she was the one, lol, ( that just made the wife a lil more jealous, lol) I am a fan of the Patina look and really like your sons truck, the lowering and wheels too. Maybe we will see each other at a show down your way sometime. I am from the Cherokee rez in NC and go there several times a year. I also go to the shows in southern VA, TN, NC ( Gate City, Johnson City, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, etc...) area anytime I can so maybe our paths will cross. Enjoy the trucks, and mostly enjoy the father/son shared hobby.

X2 - was using the search feature earlier and digging through older threads when I stumbled on some of his threads.

Noticed he hadn't logged on for a while, but was hoping he'd receive the subscribed email notice and give us some updates.

I noticed you had pulled up both of these threads of his. He comes and goes some, but it's been I guess a year or so. He never came back with pictures of both trucks in this thread. The truck is sweet
