    Loving it, wagons need wood flooring I just did mine as well.

    Keep up the good work!

    Oh my air tank is going in. The ready rod is only there to make getting the bolts in a bit easier.







    Gotta play with it a bit yet.

    Not much for updates, sorry, I've been quite busy with work and life.

    I DID put together some bag cups today. Total investment of $14 lol







    I've tossed around the idea of carry forth the theme of the hoods I have on the gauges to the headlights. Much like a Peterbilt truck. Volvo, as everyone knows also makes HD machinery.



    Not sure how they would flow. I'd rather find a GT grill with single round headlights instead.

    I apologize to those who want it done quicker lol

    Can you post some pictures of under the car when you get the rear end done? I've always wondered how bags would work with the panhard bar and keeping the rear end aligned.

    i have 2 plates that should fit on the ss bags in my garage. you are welcome to have them. they came with my rear kit when i first ordered it but i just made my own brackets so i didn't need them.

    That's what I was thinking haha. I think it's far enough from the compressor to do it's job there as well. I've seen some people mount them too close and they don't work the way they're supposed to.

    I have 6" Slamm SS bags on the way. I test fit with a Firestone 6" 2500 series bag so hopefully they're similar as far as specs go.

    what bags are you running in the rear? water trap placement is excellent btw, that will make it super easy to empty out

    Small update...

    Air tank came back from powder coating. Quite stoked. They did a great job. Cost as much as the tank did, but I have a feeling it'll be worth it in the end. Spray bomb never looks right.



    Made some tabs to mount the lower profile power steering pump. Cleans things up a bit.



    Brass funnel is temp of course lol



    Old pump new pump



    She's in. Yes I changed the bolts to grade 8, those were for mock up.



    Water trap, I found an existing hole to use hidden behind the headlight.



    Still needs some work on the line, I'll end up redoing it I think.

    My bag plates should be here this week and I cut some 5" pipe so all I'll need to do is weld it up when the UPS guy shows up.

    Then it will be bagged in the rear.
