Quick questions...

If you want it to pump fast get two pumps.
If you dont want it pumping all the time get two tanks.
Im running two tanks one inside the left running board one rear between frame.
Two pumps one air zenith(fast pulls 80 amps) one air technoligies(40amps)

cruz...
thanx...I was thinkin' maybe 2 balony-shaped tanks...I was wonderin'
where ya got yer C-notch kit & 4-bar from??? I just checked yer gallery
again & everything looks great! Nice work brother...Just got a call from the
hot rod shop & my TCI retro-fit is ordered...tryin' to decide on whooz
4-bar-link-whatever to roll with...
The whole pump thing is confusing ta me...don't wanna "wait" for pump-up
but don't wanna listen to the pump all the time either...
Why two differnt pumps? Howz the ride with the 4-bar & bags?
Didya need a hi-output alternator?
Thankx again...

From: Moore (or less), OK.
I used the Air Ride Tech universal triangulated 4 bar. I am thinking that if I had done a little more research and had more confidence in my fabrication skills I could have saved lot and made my own. The individual parts are readily available.
As it was I had to fabricate 2 brackets to attach to the 9" as the pumpkin sits off to one side.
Oh well, lessons are learned in this manner.
P.S. I prefer the triangulated over the parallel with panhard because the diff swings up and down in a straight line with minimum pinion angle change, no arc from side to side. I know the arc is minimal and the average driver would probably never even notice it but, when I put the 460 in it I want it to plant straight and solid.
