I kind of shot the budget part of this build already and I haven't even started. I just really liked the Accuair system and had to have it.

Re: New to me 72 Sub

I'm going to have to get off of craigslist looking for parts. I'm finding way too many good deals.

I found two more 72 three doors in the next town over that have great options. Going to check them out Sunday. I really want the three row seating for all of the kids.

I've been looking super hard for a full size second row burb seat. If you run across one or end up with one after all your shopping, hit me up. I'll drive to No La and pick it up.

Re: New to me 72 Sub

Well I'm off to the races. The wheels should be in soon and I have enlisted the help of another board member to aide with the Air Ride and Accuair install. I've have never bagged a truck and needed some help.

While it is down for suspension I'm pulling out all of the seats and going to do some interior work. I have all the seat covers on order hopefully they will be in by then.

Once the suspension is done I'm going to drive it around for a couple of weeks while ordering the items needed for the LS conversion.

Did they come in? Have you decided on a color? Check out the 'Delmo special' mounting style:

My new mob steel wheels. Most of the Ride Tech suspension was installed today. Still lots of work left. I dread the c-notch.
