    Thanks to the following: Thorbeck Bros., The Choppin Block, Bazooka, and Nathan from Porter Built (even though we used "the other guys" kit, he was more than willing to help).

    Next: Bazooka is going to wire it, align it, extend driveshaft and drive it. Once all that is complete, I'm going to find the time complete the bed floor. Thanks ya'll for all your kind words.

    Nothing wrong with a good four link, but having the bag placed away from the axel gives it more lift and a much smoother ride.

    Truck looks killer man . . . . . . .How are you running your valves ?

    dump and fill for each corner ?

    I see 3 air lines running to the valves and they are all connected

    8 Valves, 3/8" air line, 1/8" air line to gauges.... all quick connect Fastnel fittings. Only way to go IMO, great ride in the front.
