The rear wheel well was too small for the bag struts. There were two options: cut out the inner wheel well and weld on new metal, or go with air cylinders. I deciced to use air cylinders in the rear.
Rear bag strut rubs on inner wheel well.
Stock strut disassembled.
Figuring out how to make the strut bags fit onto the stock struts.
Dakota Digital gauges read 4 corner PSI and tank PSI.
This switch panel was made out of balsa wood and fiberglass resin. The Dakota Digital gauges will sit in the middle.
No use for these springs.
Test mounting tanks and compressors in spare tire cavity.
Iceled and Whelen connections
RaamMat was installed to dampen vibration and cut back on road noise.
These aluminum rails hold the tanks securely and raise them up about an inch for clearance.
Aluminum mounting rails for tanks.
2 ViAir 450 compressors. They run at 100% duty. They are mounted securely to the metal. Thick pieces of rubber are wedged under the feet to dampen vibrations.
These are the 2 front air tubes. They run through 2 secure grommets.
A set of valves and digital PSI sender.
4 holes were drilled on each side of the car for mounting the valves.
4 awg wire running from battery to Stinger 4 awg to 8awg splitter. There is about a 2 inch run of 8 awg to each relay.
Each relay then runs a 10 awg wire through two 40 amp fuses, and to each compressor. The 4 awg wire is fused with 60 amps on the battery.
Phil, you really do need a 56K warning on your showroom
Thanks for killing my dial up TWICE, yes TWICE while trying to view the new pics in your gallery

mactaz2001:
I got all my suspension components from EAI (Excentrix Automotive Innovations). I did the install myself. I do not know anything about Jeep suspensions, so I can't really help you out there. I can help you with basic stuff like valves, switches, tanks, fittings, compressors, just not the actual suspension components. If you want to go through EAI, let me know and I can get you some discounts.
Sorry the lighting in these picture is not great, but you get the idea: (click to enlarge)
