Bolt on kit?

IDLE · 02-12-2008, 11:11 PM

Lookin for a bolt on kit that can handle 400lbs in the bed

kyhombre · 02-13-2008, 07:54 AM

for towing/hauling? laying out? or just getting low???
towing/hauling-the air over leaf load assist kit would work
laying out-roadgrater... but you have to cut a hole in your bed for the notch
getting low-airbar... no cuttin of the frame and still have a full bed uncut.
..........
or airshocks...

but i need more info from ya, to help you out.

I have the road grater in the back of my truck and I have had HVAC equipment in the back.Currently I have about 200Lbs or so of stuff in the rear now, Relocated battery, tools (work and automotive) and some other misc items. No problem at all.

is your bed tubbed and tanks under bed????have you had any problems with the sleeve bags yet??

LXtasy · 02-18-2008, 05:56 PM

Bed is tubbed and a notch cover. Yes, my 8 gallon tank and valves are underneath. I have had no problems with the sleeve bags, except that with alot of weight I have to add more pressure, which in turns makes it ride alittle rough over some bumps.

all of our rear kits are designed to maintain and even "enhance" factory load carrying capabilities. I cant tell you that it will haul more than the truck was designed for because your brakes, axles ect were only designed for X amount of weight but what I can tell you is that you can load that truck to max capacity and inflate it up so it doesnt sag. I wouldnt use a pair of airshocks to do that.

I agree. LIke I said. I had no a lick of problems with the bags or the kit with any added weight because of it. I would trust the roadgrater kit holding the weight than a monoleaf and block setup any day of the week

do u have any pictures of this 8 gallon air tank under the bed?

LXtasy · 06-05-2008, 08:43 PM

SSdime22 · 06-08-2008, 07:37 PM

well done lol i was thinkin about running two 5 gallon tanks but you got me thinkin

LXtasy · 06-08-2008, 08:13 PM

Mind you the wiring etc is different now. That was when I removed the bed to clean some things. I have actually been thinking of adding another 8 gallon under there, and 2 viar 450's or so mounted on the side of the frame. (edc now)
