Thumbs up Re: Replacing compressor with Sanden

The sanden compressor will be more efficient than the old A-6 are the York by far.
Less room but will need their own brackets for the motor.
Plus if it's for show you can get them polished are chromed.

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.
