Re: Working....64 SS

That kit was a neat concept. It wouldn't work because it was for R12 and the fittings are different or what? I was gonna add one to mine if it all would fit.

If I had seen the kit before I had the lines made up it would have worked. I should have put the R-12 fittings on the hoses instead of the 134 A fittings.

I had the 134 A fittings installed on the hoses when made. The switch wouldn't work. The R-12 fitting is a screw fitting where the 134 A isn't.

So to fix it I had the new drier drilled and tapped for the switch. Had it vacuumed & charged today. It's working great.
I hid the lines behind the inner fender and the drier is up in the front of the fender behind the battery.

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.
