Re: [Project] Newhampshire

haha, wow, that is some redonkulous lift! lol. Stock spindles do wonders for that, huh!

Are you running fill and dump controls? that seems really slow up and down!

edit: and yeah, PP bj's are awesome. I even tore a boot in mine and zach sent me a new one for free. Lifetime warranty FTW!

nah no fill and dumps its just an airtool fitting on the end of the T so im just compressing the valve and allowing the air out it of course blasts straight into my face lol ive got 1/2 fills and 3/8 dumps but i didnt want to run anything just yet untill ive got my mounting points figured and im 99% sure i do have them figured out should be pretty badass.


im most definetly going to need some PP joints im 99% sure i tore the boots on the both uppers.

How hard are those PP joints to install? how hard is it to get the old ones out?


and i dont think thats all the lift im going to be getting, the shop compressor BARELY does 125psi.
