+LveMlike thanks man I try to make my videos entertaing and helpful to all my followers!

+brokenlegz thank you very much!

Thank you very much!

+low2kchevy haha thank you!

Thanks man!!

Thanks, i would recommend at least a 5 gallon air tank. But ya you can run multiple tanks or one large but the more air you can hold the more compressors you'll need. I would recommend an air gauge, or if you do a setup like mine with no gauges i run a pressure blow off valve so if the pressure switch doesn't tell the compressor to turn off the valve will release so the tank and or compressor doesn't blow up.

+David Harper thanks old friend haha

Thanks, ya I may try to make a video in the future of everything that is needed to build a truck. Even the little stuff people overlook.

The only thing you for got was the air management system

+Cjw Cjw hahah well glad to be back!

Thanks for the info🤙

17x7.5 nissan titan/armada wheels 205/40/17 tire

Thanks man!! Send me an email blazingcustomz@hotmail.com

No your awesome! Thanks for the support!

Just the rear 2k-3k. The whole truck 4k-8k. Honestly depends on the shop and the details. Some shops charge $70+ an hour just for fabrication... but imo you get what you pay for. If you go to a shop and they say they can bag your whole truck for 2k let me tell you it will be a very unsafe and improper job.

It's actually opposite when at full lift there super stiff, and aired down there squishy. Although if you have shocks it counter acts the squishyness at low heights

That's pretty common, ideally you don't want the bag to touch metal. But fully compressed is common in alot of cases. You'll want to check for sharp edges on the brackets them selfs, round over any 90 degree edges or harsh areas with a flap disc and then sand paper to give the most life to the airbag. If its touching smooth metal the bag should last a long time to the point where the bag itself shows wear, like drying out.

+Chase Smith thanks man for sure!

The ruber bushings allow a bit of side to side movement for average driving. If you wish to go side to side and lean the truck over alot I would recommend heim joints

3 years in the rain with no major issues. Had a ground strap get a little funky after a year so re ground the frame and added some goop on top and have been smooth sailing.

Thank you! Right on 🤘 Vancouver, WA I no longer build trucks for customers, juat make parts.

+sr20nissan 720 yep same concept

I drive this truck pretty easy, haven't noticed any major roll issues in the last 4 years. If you we're building somthing that was going to go fast and corner harder I would keep the roll center as centered as possible.

@@scrapingpavement Thanks for the reply. I have also seen some older OEM vehicles with an offset upper link, I was considering doing something similar on my truck.

This setup has been handling great, it's more setup to keep the truck flat around the corners but if you wanted side to side articulation you could simply add heim joints.

Baileigh 2x2, honesty not worth the money compared to whats on the market now. I've since upgraded to a jd squared table

+Curtis Spencer practice, failures, learning, online, KZfaq, magazines, trial and error. All self taught.

scrappingpavement plz tell me you started of the old school way 3 inch blocks in back torsion in front lol cut bump stocks ridding like crap.

4 things you can do. 1- if you have an h190 axle you can put a datsun 720 axle in which is 1.5" narrower on each side or 620 axle which is 3" narrower on each side and swap third members. 2- pull the shit out of the bed fender ( ugly ) 3- graft 87-89 rear pathfinder quarters to the bed they have a big buldge like front fenders, or some will even graft 4wd front fenders to the bed ( pathfinder quarters look better imo ) 4- lastly you can sell the wheels and get ones that tuck.

@@scrapingpavementThank you always look forward to watching your videos and seeing what's next. The last way is probably the way I will go because I'm not sure if I really like the 4x4 fenders on it

+Vladimir Rosales it the old version of ride pro valve block. Had an issue when I bought it used valve was leaking, but took it apart and put a new o ring and it works great. Really simple and easy to take a part and use. Time will tell how I like it in the long run

Thanks. The rear bumper is full custom, I made it for the truck out of 1.5" tubing and plate steel.

Well done bro, everything looks great.

Truck is still going strong as a daily driver. The roll center being offset leans a little more turning one way than the other ( not noticeable unless paying attention to it ) if you were to locate the single point on the wishbone would solve the slight lean in a corner. Other than that no complaints

@@scrapingpavement sweet! Thanks ill post some vids when i do my setup

+EvanThaG that totally makes since I'll have to try that in the future!

Thank you

Before bagging I had 3.5" blocks, removed 1 leaf, and a front hanger redrill.

heres a link to the ones i got. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000COSADS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

yea, i have a very similar setup on my 86, which is almost the exact same as yours. I didnt raise my gas tank and i wish i did, it barely hangs lower so when im rolling low it will hit sometimes. Make sure you make your wishbone as wide as you can like he did, mine is like 4.5" apart and the axle had a bit of sway but when i mounted the shocks they helped locate the axle.

EvanThaG thank you, I appreciate it a lot

Well on my nissan I had torsion and drop spindle drop on the front, re drilled leaf hangers, blocks, and mono leafed in the back. For an s10 you cut do drop spindles and drop coils up front or even cut springs. For the back of an s10 you can do drop leafs and blocks, or mono leaf. Or I've actually seen s10 guys flip the overload. Only problem with doing some of those things is the truck will ride like crap.

@@scrapingpavement when you say the truck will ride like crap do you mean you will feel every bump in the road

@@travislee2014 yes you will feel every blemish in the road and will be bouncing up and down in your seat. Although some people like that😂

+Elchingon_92 lower links and upper wishbone lol. Keeps axle from rolling and the aggressive angle on the wish bone keeps the axle from moving side to side

scrappingpavement i guess i was always thinking that the point were they meet up is in the center of the crossmember and u have it to the side.... i like a lot i might do that i like to keep the tank in place

+riley mclain I normally order online due to local stores coasting a mint. But if I have to go to a place local. I go to a place called tubes and hoses

Damn, guess I'm better just ordering some, got any good websites to order some ?

It was either thorbros.com or avsontheweb.com cant recall which place bot have adjustable bushings

@@scrapingpavement thank you appreciate

Ya it is possible with that machine when welding the thicker brackets you'll want to have the amps maxed out for flux core, make sure to bevel your material for you weld to bite in. I would use a larger wire size like .35, try not to use any extension cords the shorter the plug the better.

@@scrapingpavement How much will you charge for labor to install air bags? 1985 buick regal

Thank you, I'm located in Vancouver Washington.

@@scrapingpavement we have some family there. I have a hardy that I'll be working on. I'm feeling a road trip coming on! Lol

With the kingcab d21 there a 2 piece driveshaft so dont have to worry about rubbing anything unless it were on 22s or bigger. But I've heard this is an issue with the yotas, most people will notch the cross member for clearence and reinforce afterword. Or some will make a a whole new cross member to go in.

scrappingpavement thanks dude like seriously you helped a lot

Thanks! i found a few on ebay.

+Julian Tiobech I can do one off orders send me an email blazingcustomz@hotmail.com for more info.

Thorbros.com / avsontheweb.com / gaugemagazine.com / Amazon have slam specialities and dominator airbags

It's part of my buisness not just for personal use lol.
