cmoney23 Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) ?? An AWD air ride system? Where you find that? Are you gonna have to do tons of framework? don't airbags usually replace the springs which we have torsion bars.

shawnss Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 I know it can be done but how is this Air Ride going to work on a AWD truck? if its still AWD there will be a ton of work for up front to be done. or is it being mounted to the torson bars to raise and lower it. Like I said I know it can be done Im just interested in seeing how its installed on a AWD truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigtoyz97 Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) The upper a arm and shock relocation bracket up front. But will let you know for sure when I get the kit. They said need to convert it over to a reg 4 wheel drive suspension up front and air bag goes in there some how. And the rear gets converted to 4 link and leafs get ditched. And going to be SW Mn at Lake Benton. 2003 SuperSport is riding his bike down Friday morning from the sounds of it. 6 hour drive but he's betting he can do it 4.5-5 hours......going to be pushing his luck I say. Any takers on the bet? Edited April 13, 2014 by Bigtoyz97 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what is what was on my order list and 2650 is about what it comes to. And got it from airbagit. Ride tech was just to expensive for my taste, and just got the basic controller for now. Probably get upgrade later on for controller and few other upgrades to do later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aldofashow Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 So add this and remove the torsion bar right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmoney23 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 So add this and remove the torsion bar right Can you just remove your torsion bar completely? If so yeah just mount that bottom bracket in pic to the LCA then put the air bag in there and BOOM? Im so curious to see how this works!

Aldofashow Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 If you didn't remove your torsion bar then you couldn't adjust lower then your set torsion bar height I like this kit can't wait to see how it fits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
