    What's manufacture spec for the pressure?
    I'm assuming it's supposed to be nitrogen charged...

    Yeah, we went last year for the first time. The Aviation Museum was as good as the car show, if not better. Really interesting place. Great history on many of the planes.

    No.
    This. Its a Schrader valve.
    Damn, I need 150.
    Nitrogen 150-250; I want 150 for now.

    I was checking the rear droop and turns out the 10" shocks are 1/4" too short... Boxed the frame today (I did the welding... it looks like I had a seizure but it will hold) and plan to do the shock relocation Monday and install the FOA's and ubolt flip. Just need to charge them...

    Don't let your truck turn out like ol boys who lost the whole front axle on the freeway. Do your welds right.or that will happen :violent:

    Something like that.

    I had a guy watching over my shoulder and about %85 of the welds are good beads and at least 98% are structurally sound. Besides, I welded the entire plate and could have gotten away with only multiple welding 6" strips since its just a stiffening plate. They guy did the cross bar.

    If it ever comes to critical welds, Ill let someone else do it I think.
