well i finally did it, with the help of my 17 year old son it took us about 3 hours total. i used an Air Ride Technologies rear kit. wasnt too bad, but i did find out some things i hadnt read about that i thought i would share:

1: the upper cups have to sit all the way in, flush with the frame mount.
2: drilling a hole for the air lines on the driver side was a PITA! i had to bust out the right angle makita and drill from inside the cup
3: you have to cut "a lot" of the bolt to hold the top cup in or it will hit

well thats about it. i'll gets pics of the ride height differences tomorrow if time allows

LOL well its not that simple. i was very busy with work and didnt usually get home till after dusk. since all i had was a cell phone for a camera, i couldnt really take pics in the dark. then my fuel pump went out so i had to change that.

so tomorrow the pics will be up as i am also going to start installing the rest of the air ride. i now have tank, valves, wiring, compressor and lines. all i need is some power wire for the compressor
