Re: Airbag Suspension

The next pictures were taken underneath the truck, mostly at the drivers side rear tire.

1) You can see the shock absorber mounted here. Because the rear linked suspension had to be disconnected in order to have the rear airbags raise and lower, custom shock mounts were fabricated and rear shocks installed. The ride is stable and comfortable, with no noticible rear sway.

2) Hard air lines and wiring exiting the wall of the trunk. You can also see the hitch mount in place. One bolt was missing during the install of the hitch because the long bolt couldn't get clear of the airlines. A slightly shorter bolt was eventually used and all three bolts are in place.

3) Another shot of the airlines exiting out the drivers side of the trunk

4) The line on othe bottom is going to the top of the drivers rear airbag. The other line is continuing around the front of the trunk

5) The airline for the front airbags goes from hard line to what appears to be plastic and this line then goes over the rear differential.

More pictures to follow
