Re: need help buying parts
Hi it costs alot to do that guessing about $1500 up. Alot of guys here have remove their air ride, to put coils in because of the cost to fix it.

from the sounds of this, to clarify, you had the air ride system in before, and it was removed?
is the old compressor still there?
new one will run you about $800 from various sites.. ebay, 4x4 sites.. just search around, but thats about the average range
bags i have seen for about $90 to $150.
assuming you have all the hoses and conenctions still, it could be a simple re-install. if it was completly gutted, eh.. bring another case of beer to offset the time your going to spend figuring it out. |

Re: need help buying parts
Sorry, didn't measure before and after. I have not noticed a difference though so it must be minor.

Re: need help buying parts
Difference in weight from one side of the truck to the other was our (forums) guess. Spare tire carrier would be one example.
P.S. It would be the tension of the spring and not the Over All Length that would be different.

Re: need help buying parts
Hi their should be 4 rubber isolators, top and bottom on both coils. If you don't have them the steel on steel is going to make all kinds of noise and will wear into the mounts. They must be installed!!!

Re: need help buying parts
yeah it's true, the eom springs are great ...
what else to do guys, i'm looking for a cooler .. but don't know what to buy .. weather in my country is hot, maximum temp in summer is 140F minimum temp in winter 40F .. there's no snow .. so what the best cooler for my ride? do i need a thermostat?

Re: need help buying parts
Hi this is the best style to get and as big as you can fit in. Also you want to leave the rad cooler still hooked up and you don't need a thermostat with the temps where you live.
