a few pics
ok guys i finally went down to bestbuy and invested in a digital camera. man i sure am happy about this thing. it takes some awesome pics. anyways i thought i would share some pics of my truck. its been tore down for a while mainly me not feeling like getting outside to work on it...lol. anyways i have mad some progress. it has new cab corners, rocker panels, and floors in it. im working on the air suspension. i have the rear done which just includes my own built notch with a few premade bag brackets. im running 2 viar 450s with a 12 gallon tank, 1/2 inch air evalves and 1/2 line and the ole trusty firestone bags.. hopefully ill get the front done soon. all i like having is my drop spindles and new shorty headers. anyways here are the pics. hope they work.

So, won't that tank be in the way when hauling plywood? (j/k). Looking pretty good.
Just curious why you placed the bags there and not in the coil locations? Any advantage?

I like it.
 Here's a bit of trivial advice -- put a cheap cover on the seat so the pad doesn't get dinged up.

Yukon Jack-----eventually i would like to paint the very insides of the doors back to the original orange red and then jamb it and paint the outside more of like a tangerine orange or maybe an orange with a little pearl. i havent exactly dicided yet. ive got to do more body work to it such as finish my front clip. i still wanna get a cowl hood for it and im definatly getting a tailgate/rollpan skin combo through grant kustoms so i can weld all that up. i got a pair of caddy lights from a buddy with the harness for cheap so i dont think i can pass that up either. so to answer your question......a long time from now.
Putter------there was really only one good reason that i put the bags where i did and that was because my passenger side frame rail where the coil spring was,was just about rusted though. im actually still suprised to this day that that spring didnt just jump out...lol. i also wanted that little bit of extra drop without putting blocks between the axle and trailing arm. panhandler62-----i like your advice but i already tried that...and that dang cover always scrunching up got on my nerves so bad. i think the pad is already a little dinged up though sooooo.... anyways i really apreciate all the comments guys. yall have a good one!!!
