Thanks. It's on hold until Thurday the brake cables should be here then and I can install. Then start tearing it a part to paint.

It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Thumbs up Re: Another project

I finally got the cables and housing but haven't had a chance to do anything as of yet. Between normal events and the rain it just hasn't happen yet maybe today I'll get some time.
I did get some lights installed on it the other day. I was working on Woodie when I thought of how to mount the lights on the trike. I think it looks cool.
My grandson was in the shop with me that day and he helped work on them with me. He was playing with the lights the whole time I was trying to get pictures.

Thank you! He and his mom live with us and it is beyond great! I love being retired and spending my days with him.


I worked on the trike tonight and got the brakes hooked up and played with the lights. I think I'm going 12 volts on it. These battery lights are not very bright.

Thanks,
I'm loving it! Every minute of it. Being home everyday and getting to see him learning things everyday is the best medicine any one could ask for!

Well I decided to try the chain guard off the parts bike on the trike and it fit perfectly. I had to make 2 brackets for it but it was the right length. I also put the StingRay emblem on it.
