I see some air bags or the R4 tek kit in my near future

I put air bags on mine first thing as well, I hate when a truck squats. I am not sure how well most of the bag systems will work with your taller block though, My firestone system (inside the leaf spring not on top of it) is maxed out on height with just my F-350 block. When I go to a taller block in the rear I will have PMF make me one with a mount on the block for my air bags. BTW the icon kit from your friend is installed and rides great :thumbup:

Put the back wheels on a car dolly and tow it that way.

It could really use some air bags lol

That ain't a bad idea...I would need to figure out how to get the header off with it being inoperable...a guy offered 2k cash money for it so I might just let him fark with it so I don't have to.

I've been told the R4 tek kit will work with trucks that are lifted and I really like the thought of a full air ride rear suspension so I'm leaning that way pretty hard so I'll keep you updated as I go along

I know your not a member there but hopefully all that works. There doesn't seem to be many guys with it on there truck yet for more reviews though.

Doesn't look like that guy likes his. I think it's a good kit I just want to see it when it's installed on the truck, ride in a truck with it unloaded and with it loaded. That's really what's holding me up from doing it
