Just a couple crapy pics of my buddy's AD

He has it almost ready. Gastank and minor wiring and he'll be rolling. I'll take pics when it hits daylight.

And you know what.....This is my next set-up too.

After all the crazy money I spent on my 53 Suburban, with expensive MII and a No-Limit FatBar 4-link, and air-ride stuff....
He has half invested in his build, including a tri-4-link from Suicide Doors, and full air-ride.

With the same exact looking finished product. Well, I hated my MII. Just seemed too lightweight for a big heavy burb. My feeling anyway.

***EDIT***Or I'm thinking G-body clip and 60's trailing arm rear suspension with air-ride..!?! I had a 54 5 window with a G-body clip that rode, drove and handled great....More thinking.....****

See for yourself. 2 pics of his, 1 of mine...Same result..

I think I'm going to do another AD this fall. Love these trucks.

Mine also uses a G-body with air and I agree with your comments about the ride and handling. When mine was drivable it had coil spring suspension and it rode low and smooth. I upgraded to air ride with boxed trailing arms and energy suspension bushings throughout so it should be even better.

Good luck
Marc
