sir, its not that hard. you move the shock mounts as in as posible or maby drill new holes if they fit good. dremel parts where it is keeping it from going down futher and put shock spacers on the shocks to keep it up. make sure the cvds dont rub anyware or can fall out.

Man, the public schools are failing. Either that or the internet has produced another "ebonics" style movement.

LOL. Nice...

Anyway, why would you want to raise and put air bags in a freakin Monster Truck. I mean really. I hope your not trying to make a shelf queen... The extra hight would make it wheelie WAY to much. And the air bags would not only look retarded but would add a huge amount of weigh and greatly reduce performance (thats why no company out there makes one).

amen..... it would be such a dumb thing you would have to hade a air compressor ON YOUR CAR.. that adds a lot of weight, and they would probally break and leak air. it would be more of a hassle than good

first off "i eat glue", i wouldnt be talking about stupidity, ur name is i eat glue.... not the smartest thing to do. but any ways all of you people all rely on everyone else, you never do anything that comes to your mind. such as( thats why no company makes them). then make one your self. and if it was so bad to have those than why do some of the best riding cars in the world have air ride?
plus i didn't put any commas in my sentence because i was writing quickly!

I have to agree with nitrosavage. just becuase none of you would want air bags on your truck doesn't mean its a bad idea. Thats part of what makes this hobby interesting. Besides, its his truck, if he wants to put air bags on it he can. And, if done properly it could be a bood setup.

hey i got an idea, since you couldn't fit a compressor on the truck, why not fill up the airbags with an outside source, then when you want to slam the truck just open up a valve to let the air come out of the air bags. now all you need are airbags small enough to fit....

I FOUND CYLINDERS THAT SHOULD DO THEY RUN FOR ABOUT 21.50 EACH AND ILL USE FOUR OF THEM. I CAN USE CO2 CANISTERS TO FILL UP A CUSTOM TANK ALL I NEED ARE SOME VAVLES CAUSE THE REST IS EASY AND IF I FIND VALVE I WILL UNLOCK THE BIG PART TO NITROUS INJECTION. I GOT PLANS ON THAT TO!!!


P.S. JUST LOOK AT MY PLANS ON TOP THEY WERE MADE ON PAINT SO THEY ARE NOT THE BEST BUT THEY WORK
