Re: Cool picture!

Nice Photos Andy,,I sure like the lay out of how they promoted them for show,,Oh the Vega ,,did you know that the 76 Vette had the same steeing wheel as the Vega ,,or very simular and the Corvette clubs were very disapointed with General Motors for putting a cheap car steeing wheel on a expensive Corevette,,

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: Cool picture!

Oh no! They cut up one of the rare 3 door Suburbans!!!

It also looks awful "shiney" inside of the rear quarter... looks to have been painted... damn shame they weren't actually built that way...
