Re: front and rear "axle"

I'm not asking for a pissing match but I think you are stepping on a lot of peoples toes that you dont need to be. If you have an issue with the front end let us help or rectify the problem... Like I mentioned I would not have left Air Ride for a company i didn't believe in... After 12 years in the after market suspension Industry you are praising a couple of the most infamous companies (excluding no limit) out there for having issues odd isn't it... I am no rookie and I hear and see alot and I promise, you are one of very few that have had an issue and the others have allowed us to correct the problems. We are human We are not perfect but We will address and correct to the best of Our abilities any issue no matter how long ago it was, period!

I'm a fan of a Currie 9" rear axle, but they are pretty pricey IMO.

Re: front and rear "axle"

so instead you are going to continue crapping in someones thread by creating a pissing match now? Last time suggesting this.. use the review forum, or drop it. I am not going to follow you post to post replying all day..

If you have a further issue you can
1. use the report a post feature
2. PM an administrator
3. post in the review area

What you can not do, is continue going on in this manner in threads.

I almost used them. Looks like nice stuff and cheaper then some vendors if you can get the donor parts cheap. I found a C4 front and rear complete for $600. The expensive part is getting the right coilovers. Look through the threads, there are more than a couple guys that went this route.

Re: front and rear "axle"

I have bought the kit both front and rear, and have also purchased the coil overs. My truck is a 52 short box. It had a 383 stroker and th350 with a disc brake conversion front and power steering. The thing I didn't like was the handling was not the best. I looked around and decided on the Flat out stuff because I wanted to run all gm suspension. I found a great deal (my opinion) 95 corvette front and rear (dana 44) for 1,000, planning to start the install this coming week. All the parts were bought over the last 6-8 months so I would have them when work got slow and money got tight. Also just bought a linclon precision tig 275. 8)
