    I definitely learned a lot from this one. Need to get back up to Gilmer and hit the rock garden for some testing!

    Idea : --》Um. You should tap that, weld in a couple bungs for air fittings !) It takes the weight of the truck. The rest is just unused space internally. Why not?


    Looks great though. Congrats on a finished welding project

    All in due time. Might have to take a quick run up to shiloh to find a rock to drag it across.

    Thanks! Probably not enough volume for a tank with this one, but the flat bad I have planned will have plenty of volume for an air tank. :D

    I ordered straight from SPC.

    Do you have the older style bushings? SPC has a pretty damn good warranty. Everyone that I know of that has called them reporting a failure has received a brand new set of control arms. Just send in the old arms once you get the new ones.

    I wish I had known about the warranty before I did the install myself.

    I believe they're old style, any defining marks or differences to look for?
