[QUOTE="Betarocker, post: 1519771, member: 477"] Installed a set of Ride Rite airbags. Wasn't as easy as the instructions made out, but that was mostly due to having OUO Traction Blocks which required drilling the jounce pad. The Jounce bumpers were somewhat rusty, and the lock nut was stubborn. Things got a bit easier after dropping the spare, but still a pain in the @$$. Go the frame bracket mounted after farting around with the different shim spacers supplied. Once that was taken care of, could figure out where to drill the hole for the lower mount. I was originally going to use Daystar cups but there isn't enough space to run them. Ended up using a screw extractor to drill the pilot hole from the top as my angle drill was too tall to use a regular bit. A little extra leverage with a pry bar got the hole made. Finish drilling the 3/8" hole from below and then mounted the bags and air line. While I was underneath, before raising the spare, I moved the trailer wiring harness to the outboard side of the hitch bracket. Now there's plenty of extra space to fit the 37" spare, with probably room for a 38". I could have used these last week when I helped my brother haul his 4Runner 1000km to the house he just sold so he could use that to haul his small trailer of crap home while I dragged his old Landcruiser he's restoring back. On the way out my truck was @$$ sagging and aiming the lights too high. On the way home I aimed them way down. [/QUOTE]
