took me a while, only because it was on my truck lol, but i got it done today, i used all grade 8 bolts instead of the self thread cutting bolts they wanted me to use in the instructions:

this is with 20 PSI:

i decided to drill into the bed lip as you can see for the air lines, but i coated the hole in anti-seize so hopefully it doesn't rust, so far i can really tell a difference in the ride and the body roll, i dont tow anything but if i did or do these will be really handy too

they are made by air lift, and are rated for 2000 pounds, at 100 PSI, i paid $200.76 for them at work, and they have a life time warranty, too bad i didnt have a TPMS or i could probably find a way to monitor these from inside the truck without that stupid compressor system

thanks, i recommend these to anybody that tows, or hauls anything, they are such a great system, and so easy to use, and adjustable.

Yep, no holes drilled at all, which was really nice. Not that I'm scared of drilling but it sure made installation fast.

i hate drilling holes lol, but only on my own truck, i feel like i did a very good install, and didnt mess a hole up or anything i had to get very creative since i didnt use the self tappers though, i had to electrical tape the front 2 bolts on each side to my finger and stick it in the access hole and put it inside out through the frame lol, took me a while to figure it out

Why buy new when you can restore?

Nice Cody :thumbs:

What's the difference between these and the Firestone Ride-Rite setup that's rated for 5,000lbs?
