I did the "T" thing, didn't want the hassle of two valves and I almost never have more weight in one side of the bed. Didn't drill my frame either, but I think I covered that before... maybe once.... LOL...

Yeah, I know, but it sat level with the RV on it before the leveling kit. And yes, I am definitely planning to come to the Orlando get together in August....looking forward to it.

nope no spacers. it bolted right up. the way the AirRide system is designed, lifts dont affect it at all. And I'm afraid i have a whole bunch more mods sittin in the garage ready to be put on if i can find time to do it. Its gonna take an aweful lot to keep up with me this time lol

$200 is holding you back? and the firestone bags wont work for lifted trucks anyway. deals with how they're mounted. AirRide is your only choice

You have the same frame I do I promise. The bracket will bolt right over top of that weld. Just torque the bolts in an X a little at a time. If you're really worried about it, you can grind down that weld...it wont affect frame strength at all.
