SCORE! Just ordered SD Airbag Brackets

$70 SHIPPED! Woo Hoo! Can't wait till they get here. Already got the bags, just gotta go get the fittings (maybe free through the same friend who got me the bags for cheap)
BTW: I got Firestone 2600lb bags.

Gonna throw on a 2" Shackle, and maybe pull a leaf. I'm just wanting it to tuck a little tire, which, on the rear is 2" away, and the front is 1" away.

Yep, and it WILL last a while, that is, until I get more money and can afford a compressor/tank/etc.

Eh, 35 x 4 for solenoids

45 bucks for a tank

180 for compressor

get a switchbox or mount some switches somewhere, wire it all up. Its not THAT expensive. But then you start talking about the rear. THATS where it gets pricey.

You do realize, that's like $350? I just spent $150 on a complete front setup, and I'm poor!

Just make sure the bolt pattern on the bag matches the brackets because there are a ton of different patterns on the 2600.

Hmm...well, I told him I needed the 2600's, for a 75 chevy truck, with the control arm setup. (Even showed him the plates) So, hopefully they're the right ones.

If it was ordered at a custom shop then it should be fine.

Custom Truck parts shop I suppose. My friend gets them through them cheap, because he's a dealer though. Or something like that...Cuz I looked on www.fbimini.com, and it shows the 'Stone's are $60 a piece.
