Thanks Silver, I will.

Jay, 3/8 is the smallest I would go anyway. Do you know what a train horn setup sounds with 1/4" line? Yeah, not good. ive got 1/2" valve and lines on my current tank and horns.

expecially with a heavy, fullsize truck. you'd want the biggest line you can get to raise and lower your truck as quickly as possible. not like "hopping" status, but i wouldnt want to take 8-10 seconds just to raise/lower my truck

weed said he wanted to go up and down not get shaken around........ 3/8 would def be plenty i would not recomend 1/2 to anyone unless they are strickly gonna play around. You have no control even on a fullsize. i would go 3/8 with 3/8 line then weed if u do want to go up at a borderline fast then your next option is 3/8 with 1/2 line then go to 1/2 but trust me 1/2 is too much you will be thrown around.

A 4-link replaces your leafs to centre your rear end and allow it to move up and down in laimenz terms. Now what people are doing to lower theres is pretty much what your gonna do but when the set there bags up they have the truck at the lowest point, and they set there pinion angle at ride hight. So you will set your bags up at factory ride hight and pinion angle at lifted hight.... Same idea except them dragging frame is your factory ride hight to get in the truck and there ride hight is your lifted hight

Trust me, Ive seen all there is to see. SinCity has a good one though. And there is a grey QC that has some good ones

Thanks Unperfected. So a 4link is needed regardless of whether you lift or drop then right? I seen your thread BTW. Big ***** you got there man. Big *****. Have you gotten it finished yet though?

if your 2wd the front is simple....... keep your lift part tho and just remove the spring weld in a flat plate on the lower ca and the weld a bracket to the frame and done. It should take a 3-4 hours to do the front at most if its 2wd. its simple. the back takes a while tho
