Looks good, planning on doing the same to mine, but have a long way to go.


Also what is the part # for the air shocks? And about how much stroke do they get?

The part number is MA705MM and fully compressed is 10.8'' not sure fully extended.

You can get them here http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

I got the U-bolts locally from a trailer place but I wish I would have went with thinner bolts (like the stock ones) cause I had to widen the holes.

Thanks for the info Hotcat.

Air shocks are a great idea. Alot easier and easier to work with than a bag in small cases like this. You can also use air hose instead of the air lines that come with then and clamp it on the ends. This will give you more air faster, quicker adjustments. 3/8" should be the correct size, and 3/8" valves if you plan on running everything onboard. I have a set off my minitruck I will probably fab up to work on the rear. I would also like to work on a 4 linked rear.

My main concern is my steering since I have the older steering.

Ive been talking to Monkey about getting all the right fittings and DOT approved air lines to run everything 3/8''.
