Andy, if you want an extra bracket let me know. I just bought a canister *and* bracket from a forum member. I just wanted the canister but he would not separate the bracket from the sale - just PM me. If this goes well, I might even end up with an extra canister after all of this. I have the "new" one from a eBay Vett guy that I have installed, the original one from my C10 and the one that is on way in USPS.

As for fitting it, you would have to change your tank to be able to vent and run that line to the canister. Then there are two vacuum lines - one to the carb (by the choke) and one either to the front of the carb or tie into PCV line (some Qjet 4bb carbs have a extra connection on the front and some don't).
Thanks. I ordered the 72 sender and going to try and find a canister tomorrow in a newer vehicle at the LKQ yard and run I hope anyway. I have a bracket and a old canister some where out of my 71. Man I took that crap out a long time ago though who knows where maybe. Hopefully I can find one tomorrow.

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.
