hey guys... since being here in GA ive had a little bit of time to do some researching on bag kits, more specifically complete kits. so far i found a few, most of the kits i found come complete with 4 link, c notches, and air managment. the websites i looked at are:

airbagparts.com- airbagit.com- coolcars.org- jpkustoms.com- ridinlowcustoms.com- ridetech.com (airbar & strong arms- complete bolt on- no air managment) avsontheweb.com- thecustomconnectiononline.com- x2industries.com

if you decide to take a look at these sites, lemme know your opinions and what you think is the best kit and/or deal... also my PSP got jacked by the "matress guys" here at my hotel today! F'Rs! the GM's gonna call me tomorrow and work something out... i.e. im gonna get a new psp or they get a burned down hotel

alright so the shackles came in today... best way to go about installing this myself would be? jacking up the axle would put pressure on it... so jack up the frame?

2 jacks jack the frame up so the back tires come off the ground....then use another to jack up the axle youll have a sweet spot for the old shackle to come loose and out then replace with new and tighten everything up let the whole truck down all weight is on them make sure they pushed back and tighten again to make sure they are nice and tight recheck in 2 weeks for sure....

thanks jay... Now the trick is finding a jack that will actually get my truck back tires off the ground... my jack wont raise the frame high enough without hitting its point... even just under the cab it fails....

i put mine on a riser i have hand built steps made of wood that i built...i know they are strong because of what we used to use these types of steps for in the field i was in...i used them under my jack and put the jack under my hitch and used that as a lift spot....just make sure you can lower it far enough to get it all out....
