Santa Came Early

So I bought myself a new trailer for a Christmas present to myself. Trailer is awesome but even empty sags the rear of the truck over an inch. Trailer is a new H&H 20' Speedloader with 14k suspension upgrade and LED lights.

To fix the sag I ordered a set of Ride Rite air bags and the Air Lift 72000 wireless air setup. I should have everything installed tomorrow and will try to take some pics.

Here's a couple not very good pics from when I picked up the trailer.

Very nice... Now just add just aluminum wheels to complete the package.
