The change was necessary due to the relocation of the lower shock mount. I will call the guys at Air Ride on Monday and see what's up.


Nathan,

I thought they were going to use the same shock as the original, but just raise the upper mounting location? I'm still waiting on Chase to get back with me on this.

PS Looks like Albuquerque is going to happen. So, it looks like I'll be making a road trip to your shop sometime this fall.

Good... I am itching to see the sub!... and of course the quad cab!

Air Ride did switch the shock to a stud on top. I forget the retail on the new 'shock kit' to convert... I want to say around $160???? It was close to that anyways.
