How does that D60 ride? What sort of suspension travel do you have?

Looks REALLY good;Sweet

I sometimes tossed around the idea of having air on all 4 corners for variable ride height as well as better hauling capability. Like the in cab gauges too. Now you know exactly how much you are hauling.

that is sweet. where did you get the parts etc?

i worked closely with a company called "air baggit" they prototyped the parts for me. they would send me a drawing and i would make changes, send it back. did this for almost 9 months. still had to heavily modify the parts sent to work. everything came in pieces, so it was easy to modify before i welded it together

it depends on the terrain:rotflmao. i think it would ride better with different shocks. gas charged instead of oil dampened. as far as articulation goes, never measured it. the gauges came about because my dash speaker cover fell in. hears a link to that build http://www.oilburners.net/forums/showthread.php?t=29407&highlight=%22glass%22

so do they sell a kit now that you did all of the work?

:D probably :D, but that kit should no way reflect on me. :rotflmao i still had to heavily modify the parts that i received, and i would have to assume that anyone who purchased one would have to do the same. if your good with a welder and can work with metal, cutting, bending, and drilling, all is good. if not..... :angel:i wont be held responsible:angel:
