first off i have a 04 f150 with a rancho lift and 1.5inch lift shackles in the rear not sure they gave me exactly 1.5inchs though. anyways im looking at installing air bags and was wondering if this item i found on ebay looks like a good deal...

Also i was wondering how to fab up or if there is a company that makes something to compensate for the lift kit.

thanks

 

this should help...

you can get them from summit for 249. i think thats what i paid.....plus i got the auto leveling kit for it also it works great but you have to have compressed air on the truck

 

Not sure what i should be looking for.....



is the compressor and all those goodies really worth it? and dose summit have free shipping

 

firestones compressor is not worth the money its to small that is cfm output ...i went with a viair 380 compressor with the train horns i got the pump is much better IMO ... i use my truck at work so loading and unloading stuff all the time plus being leveled the truck sags while loaded ...... so YES it is worth it to me not guessing how much to inflate the bags here and there.... NO to free shipping but better price on the parts they have compaired to the rest of the vendors ive seen

 

build a kit yourself i am sure you can do it for cheaper and with better parts...as for that link i sent you look at his albums in his profile. He has a nice rear bag setup

 

i will look in to that compressor thanks for the info

ill check that out, and a buddy of mine fabbed his own type of leveling kti so i might try and do that ..thanks

 

Found the bags for 259.97 on summit .... found them on adventurerv.net for 229.99 and summit beat the price to something around 228 all in all it was around 240 to my door!

thanks for the help

 

[QUOTE=scapesinc;3864440]Not sure what i should be looking for.....




I bought these at tsc . and just cut the radius on them . Then used square stock to fit in the reciever. On one end I welded a piece of flat stock and drilled a hole in it to mount the bag. So the square stock can slide up in the reciever and not tearing your bags . This could happen if you offroad. or just flexing your rearend. Hope this helps

 

[QUOTE=06 SANDSTONE;3872595]thats great! thanks have you ever taken any pictures of the truck flexing?

 

no

 

I'd definitely like to see that !
