Talking Re: Its all coming together finally...Pics

Looks like you have a long weekend ahead of you. Just take your time though and make sure you don't scratch it up on reassembly!

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

The color is called electric blue, also known as "viper blue" a dodge color.
Didnt miss a spot, that was where the fender bolts on, has been sandblasted, several times over, not all the "grime" came out, so that's as best as we could get it.

Re: Its all coming together finally...Pics

Sweet!! I like the color and the stance, is it stock height? It looks like it might be lowered a little. It's always motivating when you get a pile of parts to start looking like a truck again.

OK, it is now 5:46 PM on Labor day. We want some updates and pictures of the progress.

Just kidding!! Hope everything has been coming together well for you. Take a little time off and spend it with your folks and chow down on some good old BBQ or whatever else is on the grill.

Good luck!

Keith

Sorry for the late response guys! Been a hectic couple of days getting back down to school with all the rain and flooding around here! Mostly finished up the truck on monday, still have a few odds and ends to take care of, looking great so far!
