looks good indeed. im going to go old fashion and just use 4 valves/switches with the dual compressor and 5gallon. though i still dont know if im going to go all 4 corner, axles, or what...

I was told if you run two bags on one valve(T) that when you turn a corner the air will want to transfer from one bag to the other creating body roll.
 
Well I got all the air lines run through the frame back to the pumps. Everythng works perfect and fast. I would recomend using the the valve block system instead of mutilple valves and switches, it makes for a cleaner and eiasier set up.

i would but i was given a pair for free so i just bought another pair to match and just snagged a new 5 gal tank, that has 4 bungs to hold my valves in front plus multiple bungs added for sensors, both compressors, etc. i snagged it for 30. easily a 100 worthy tank. my next build ill consider the block setup.

glad to hear its all working smoothly for your setup tho, looking forward to seeing possibly a video of your setup in action?

Hey Busted, I just looked through your whole build thread....wow man! What a great job! I like your truck on a ton of different levels. It's outta the box, unique, self-engineered, self-built, menacing and it scares the purists! The exact recipe for a bad *** rod! Great job!
 
Rear shocks

Well I finally got around to figuring out how I was going to mount my rear shocks. I ended up making a braket and then mounting it to my trailing trailing arm. I was able to to tuck it behind my frame to give it a clean look.

Does the shock actually move when you cycle the suspension? If so, how much shock compression do you get from 1 inch of wheel movement?
