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.

Talking

OK it a done deal the shoot was done today after church at the RockHill Industrial Park and it took about a hour and a half.That guy shot so much film I wonder if he has stock with KODAK.hehe Anyway after I get the tech sheet back to him he said he would send it in to Sport Truck Mag. and Truckin and Classic Truck Mag. then after it's covered in the US he said it would be covered in Japan.WOW I can see it now BIG ORANGE INVADES JAPAN, LOL hehehe
So if any of you folks see it in a mag. let me know, because they dont tell you when or were it's coming out.I subscribe to Classic Truck and Hot Rod but anyway if you see it let me know. THANKS Donnie/aka BIG ORANGE

Oyeah I got my personalized tag on just in time for the shoot. (BGORANG)
Thanks for all the very nice compliments from the board family,whos comming to Pigeon Forges in May?
