Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
i only had about 2 hours to work this weekend, starting plumbing and wiring my air ride. What did you guys do as far as shortening the wirining on the Accuair , did you shorten it and re-pin the ends or did you take it out of the middle and just solder it ?????

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread
Looks good mike!!! On the ones that I have done I re-pinned the ends but I would think either way would be fine!!
