I got the wiring finished up on the internal regulator and cover on. No more external regulator.
I didn't use the jumper wires, I took the brown wire straight to the alternator. Took the red wire off the old regulator and ran it straight to the new alternator.
Much cleaner and less connections to go bad. I used the Buick alternator with 94amps.

I installed a oil filler tube also.

I have both door mirrors on the way also.

Later I'll do the head light relays.

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. Last edited by Andy4639; 02-07-2020 at 10:52 PM.
