Re: POST YOUR: Before and After Pics

I don't have enough progress for an after picture, but thought I would just say that there is an awesome amount of talent on this board!! I just wish I had some of it.

Really, though, great job everybody, very impressive!

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: POST YOUR: Before and After Pics

A lot of nice trucks and hard work by all of you guys.

Here is mine. I got it when I was 15 back in 1988. I actually haven't driven it on the street since 1999. It hasn't even been started since the summer of 2006 but plan on getting back on it once I finish my K10 projects.
