I have very little clearance on the outer bedside....It is ok as I am not going any lower on this truck so it will work.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
Wheels look great! I love how the fender lip comes just even with the top of the wheel. Perfect stance!

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
Al you can see the line running up behind the shock tower in the first picture. I put a piece of rubber hose over it so it would not wear on the bracket.
In the last pics you can see I drilled a hole in the back of the airbag bracket put a piece of fuel line hose through the bracket and ran the airline through the hole. In to the 90 degree adapter in the bag. So the line runs from the back of the truck on the inside of the frame. Goes through the old upper shock mount hole. Behind the porter built shock bracket and throught the center of the upper bag mount to the bag. At every point that I went around a bend or through the frame I put fuel line around the airline so that it would not wear a hole in the airline. Hope this helps. |
