Bridge welded in and the best thing is no hoses and cylinders poking through the bed floor

Im still glad I went with hydraulics on the 48 coupe only reason im doing air suspension is because its for the old lady otherwise it would have hydraulics too lol. ive driven it to loomis ca, Stockton ca, Williams ca recently when we evacuated and to this date (knock on wood) not one problem has came up. Its no smooth ride by any means but it comes with the territory

Wow, that's pretty! I don't know anything about hydraulics. That setup looks like a very expensive cappuccino maker! Lol.
