well, i ran into some problems and had to stop my truck build a while back and am just now ready to get back on it. im getting ready to buy all my air ride parts and was wondering if everyone bought the ART kits, or if they pieced everything together. if you did piece it together could you maybe give me a price break down and the companies that you bought the parts from? just trying to get the best deal!! thanks alot

I bought most of my parts from *****************. Their prices are tough to beat. ART's stuff is spendy but the quality is great, and their staff seems really knowledgable.

71swb4x4 said it all. If you want to spend the bucks for the best engineered kit on the market, go with ART. If you want to use some great pieces at an even better price get with Jason at Suicide Doors. There are others but this is really all you need.

Good to see your back at the build. I had not seen you around for a while and thought about what's up with your truck.

I used the ART front kit, art weld on rear parallel kit and the air lift engine driven compressor with art valves/gauges/switches. If I had the option at the time I would have gotten the SD front kit with slam bags but I still would have run the art rear kit, it was cake to install.

I bought my air supply setup and slam bags from suicidedoors for almost $1100. Then my notch and weld on 4link from kp components was another $700. Now i need a drop crossmember wich is gonna run me another $400. Damn, cant believe i've spent that much already
