Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
In the next few weeks I'm tearing out the RideTech system off my truck and going to Accuair dual compressor elevel bigger tank system.
I will be taking out everything from the air control system including the elevel sensors harness compressor red block valves air tank everything but the bags which I'm re using. Nothing wrong with it just wanting a faster air up system with more capacity. All of this parts will be available for a fraction of the price.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
Haven't heard much from ya. Cool about the Accuair. Just driving mine today. At alignment shop right now!!! I have the same Accuair setup you're goin to and it's so easy to figure out and operate I think I'm doing something wrong.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
After modifying my rear wheels and having a local shop working the rear tubs I picked up about another 1 1/2 lower in the rear. Also had an accuair management system installed with dual compressors and eleven.

Will edit. Systems basically the same Big difference is larger tank two compressors large diameter air lines. Biggest change was the work on the back wheels and rear inner tubs which now is about a inch lower

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild
Looks perfect!
Did you machine the back side of the wheels to increase the backspacing?
