Well, I hope this is last modification, (per my wife). I saw in the last 4wheel mag that an Excursion and Super-duty had added air springs with their lift kits. Well I had to get them. They only cost $249.00, shipping included. The install took about a hour, (using air tools). Pumping up for the first time to 60lbs, I watched my rig start rising up! Wow instant lift kit. I wonder if they make one for the front? (I guess someone makes one that is a lift kit for the dodge and jeep). With no leaks I brought the pressure down to about 10lbs and took it for a test drive. Well no more bounce in the rear and with the hellwig sway bar I rides tighter and with more control. If you wonder if it will work with a lift kit, it does. I just had to buy longer bolts for the axle bracket(I have blocks with stock springs). I think it was a great addition.

Yes I know they are really made for towing
Maybe a compressor and gauge next?

I know someone makes them for the front but I do not know who? I would think Firestone? There are some guys around here who have them on their pick ups. I will ask around.
