Re: What's the trick for pulling a park brake assembly?

Pull the panel back, and do as stated above and you're done. I removed the dash pad to avoid damaging it while pulling the panel. That probably wasn't necessary either, but at some point I figure to remove it anyway. Amazing how easy this stuff is.........considering how hard this stuff is
While you have it out do the E brake mod to the pedal.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
