BUT let's hope that doesn't happen
Yes I don't want that to happen either. I have the slider to. Can you get some pictures of it from the door sides for me just to see what I'm going to be facing. Also is there a reason you cut the whole center section out of it?

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
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.

Sure -- I'll take some more pictures

I just didn't like how it looked so I took out the whole center section

My idea is to extend the center down to the floor. This should help with rigidness also.
