Do not buy from them.

Go to these sites to read about air bagging.

Plenty of guys projects to flip through, and many of them post lots of pics. The main thing to take away is the brakets, and plumbing of the air system.

Theres a guy who did the air ride on here, and look closely on how he did the front brackets.

Here is my plan for the rear of mine. I have already talked to the guy who is making them on the phone. I'm convinced it will work on our body style.

Looks like a winner to me.

Just angle your bar up at ride height to a magical point 2 foot in front of your truck. That way you have a good instant center and roll center.

If the rear angle is too steep the rear end will feel loose.

If the bars angle down you will get to much squat when you load up and or accerate hard.

Yes it seems to be a pretty straight forward install. Are you refering to where I weld the rear brackets on to my rear end? The front of the bars have a bracket that will bolt in place of the the original front leaf spring bracket after removing the factory rivets.
