nothing to complete the install.... you remove your bump stop over your rear axle and install the top plate of the air bag... install the bottom plate on the axle secure with the ubolt and put the bags on ... run the lines and there you are.... air it up and enjoy....its easy ask anyone

Do you have a link of where you purchased them from? Do you know what the weight limit of the bags are?

Will these work if I have a 4" lift? My rear of my truck is only lifted 2.5" over stock.

You will need to install an extended bracket to account for the lift.
See this link from etrailer.com: http://www.etrailer.com/dept-pg-Acce...nsion_Kit.aspx

You may also want to go to the Ride Rite website and download the installation instructions and it will be clearer as to what is needed.

I just got my 2350 kit and went researched all of this over the past week...

Good luck with the sale!

Which one did you order with your 4" Rancho? Are you just running the rancho block in the back?

Free bump!
I am fabbing my own as I have a 5" block and lift shackles to account for and I want the braketry to be perfectly level with the axle. I am using a 1/4" bar stock and will cut and grind to my specs.
