Re: 86 chevy crew cab 12 valve swap

Thanks, I will have to get some more loader pics for your enjoyment, there are some interesting ones running around here.
Got parts! Air bags, wiring harness, sound insulation stuff, and a 90 degree elbow for the turbo. Started tinkering with the front air bags. The ones I got say they will lift 1,000 lbs @ 100 lbs pressure. They will lift the front the 2 inches I was looking for at 35-40 lbs. I dont have the front clip on so that extra weight will make the psi go up im sure but hopefully they will still do the job. I am thinking about using a level valve on each side to set ride height. I need to incorporate a bump stop into the frame bracket of the air bag but I just threw something together to see if they could even lift it at all. Was pleasantly surprised that they lifted it with that low of pressure.
