i still love you noobcakes. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/inlove.gif.6846f78f06b405429ef3a00129788a2a.gif

but to clarify, i was not saying it wasnt a cool thing to build, but if you paid a shop to do it, id call you homosexual //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
oh yea built not bought! why pay someone to do it you cant really call it yours. thats lame. i may get help like with welding and stuff just because my friends are a lot better than i am and thats kinda playing with my life so ill have them do it. but im still right in there grinding and cutting and bolting shit on and running wires. hopefully i can get the link system close to done tomorrow.

 
this is awesome.
thanks! oh yea i forgot to mention to ya guys. so im planning on raising the bed floor as i dont prefer to have a huge hole cut in the center of my bed id rather keep the semi stock look. well we figured what teh hell lets raise it enough so its body droped. then just shim it up for now and later build a new frame under the cab of my truck to do a stock floor body drop there and then just drop out the shims and BOOM!!! body droped B!TCHES!!!!! just gotta figure out if im gunna go to the rocker or the door!!!

 
Go to the rockers Rick. Save you some headaches down the road.

It is easier to weld in new rockers than it is to have to replace/repair what little bit of metal is left under the doors and the corners when it gets beat up.

 

 

Section the gas tank or spend a couple hundred on a fuel cell. I got mine for $150. 15 gallons.

 

 

 

And easy on the built not bought deal. Not everyone has the proper tools and knowledge to set a link system up and it should only be performed by skilled people. So paying someone to keep your vehicle safe and not crashing across medians and slamming into inoccent drivers is worth it.

(my shop does suspensions and body shaving also if in FL //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif)

Those compressors look beat up
they are just dirty. i bought them off of my buddy in are club someone hit his truck so i got valves compressors a switch box an air tank and pressure switch for $200 its ok though because im planning on adding in nitrogen so the compressors will be a back up.
