White Lightning Posted December 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2013 Looks good man. But my question is, why do you need airshoks when you have the bags? Ive been out of the airride game awhile and just curious. Thanks for responding ... I've had the air shocks on the truck for a while ... We've just lowered the truck recently and installed the rear bags yesterday ... I'm just wondering if I can just "tie them in" somehow or just fork out the money (that I do not have at the moment) and buy gas riders for the truck ...

White Lightning Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 For those of you guys interested ... This truck will be returned to as much stock as possible over the summer. All of the attention will be turned to the 49 Ford, Which will have a COMPLETE Air Ride setup when done ... I will start a Air Ride suspension thread on the 49 as soon as we actually get to work on the car ... Thank you SMD ...

Rck'nRF Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 the welds are making me nervous! Not to be a dick but you need to rip that stuff off and build proper brackets then clean the metal before you weld... I tend to also find myself agreeing on this..maybe just angles,but they just look weak thin-ish/splashy..is this tig,mig, arc welded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that was called for. I have seen such "OK welds" fail. With dirty metal, splattered welds and no geometry involved in the design I would say it's a good thing it's stock again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
