Maximum Low! on the C10: Air Ride Suspension Install Challenge

  • Опубликовано: 16 окт 2023
  • In this second installment of our 1987 Square Body C10 series, we embark on the complex journey of installing an air ride suspension. My aim was a consistent lay out between the front and rear, but the front presented unique challenges. Through precision welding and innovative problem-solving, we've approached a solution that achieves significant lowering without resorting to a full body drop or chassis swap. There's still more fine-tuning ahead, but the results so far are promising. Your feedback and support is invaluable. Please like, share, and subscribe to follow the progress. #C10Restoration #SuspensionInnovation

    Love the trouble shooting process. You're very knowledgeable. You're the last of the true mechanic/fabricator breed. Not like these new techs that rely on the computer.

    Love the content, been one of my favorite channels for a long time. Been watching since pepto. Got my submission in for the slam box!Just opened up my own HVAC company (High Performance Heating & AC) I told my wife that eventually I would love to have a old truck with a box bed on air ride so I could pull up to a job , air out and just roll the new units off. Fingers crossed luck is on my side. No matter what, I’m happy to support the channel brother

    Do you have to do a brace on the steering pump? I’ve seen where people have had to do that because the pump twist when lowered and turning while driving.
