Hey I used the Firestone 2600 and 2500 bags, it is a cpp notch and cpp shocks relocated front and rear as I had a cpp 5/7 drop on it before so I used the shocks that I had before. I have the cpp adjustable pan hard bar, and 1.5 in block. And it sits the center of bed on rear end when aired out. The lower control arms are about 1/2 inch off the ground aired out! Thank you for the kind words!

Re: AirRide done

Has you ever thought of using CLR on the paint.

The only thing I would do is add some new/used headlight bezels to your truck and maybe a chrome front bumper.

Hey Keith! I have thought about using CLR, I was just kind of nervous of the results, does it work good? I have also thought of chrome bumpers and bezels, just haven't made the step to do it yet. I would love to try the CLR though.. You just mix with warm water and use scotchbrite?

Re: AirRide done

Yep.
I think the scotchbrite/CLR treatment would do wonders for your paint.

Cool! I may do that, I believe my wife bought some CLR for cleaning supplies about a month ago and I have been seeing and I will act on it now ! I have the seat out and getting new foam and Truckseats cover put on, so I have some time. I really appreciate all the info you have given me

Re: AirRide done

Man your truck just keeps getting better and better... Maybe I'll get to see it this summer. What are you going to do with the static drop suspension parts? Keep up the great work..
