Re: air ride parts
From my personal experience I can say that although it isn't near as bad as a steel sprung truck air ride without shocks is too bouncy for me. I was also running about 65psi front and 45psi rear. More than that and I feel like it rode more like a potato wagon

Re: air ride parts
You should slow down your typing a little bit and not push everyone on, "its my way or nothing" and these guys might roll with you a little more man. You're typing kinda makes me picture a 12 year old with ADD on the other end of the keyboard.
I too have built a lot of bagged cars/ trucks and I put shocks on them and havent ever had it slow them down, or if it did it was barely noticeable. I have also never liked the crap DOT line and its small ID, I only use hydraulic line, with a decent ID, enough to flow some air. Here was one of my last daily driver/ beaters: Ill be bagging my 72 shortbed in the next month or so. |

Re: air ride parts
dunno wat shocks he was using , it might be they where too tight on the rebound , think a set of tuneable shocks would be the ticket .
