weld some D-rings to the trailer. we did that witsh ours, and it makes life a lot easier when strapping stuff down.

yeah we have several things we want to do to the trailer.

first and most important, install electric brakes.

then after that we are gonna redo it with a steel deck, cut holes in trailer to put the lights in instead of hanging before, will install d rings along with the steel deck, and some other shit. but they wanted 1000$ more for a steel deck. and we can make it a steel deck way cheaper. and my time is free.

fox shocks with airbags on a lowered truck? that's one I actually haven't seen yet. I've seen fox baja shocks with airbags on those stupid lifted trucks that have never seen dirt in their lives, but makes sense enough.

I actually do remember seeing that truck, didn't notice the fox shox on it. They should work well, they're essentially designed for high travel baja style, so they should function identically at any bag pressure/ride height you want to run.

You crazy fucker.

So it should handle? How do you adjust them (shocks)?

They have a schrader valve on the remote reservoir that you use to adjust the air/nitrogen pressure which alters the density of the oil so the piston/valving reacts differently. Higher pressure = stiffer shox.

So I guess the headers go wit the truck if you ever sell it, even without the engine? lol. Nice pieces though, are the tuned or just what fits?

Could you send some more info on your rack my way, like what the main rack width is to the inner tie rods, travel, diameter and turns?

Thanks.
