I have been wanting to air a car ever since I had my 1st car 9 years ago so, I'm stoked

looking forward to some daylight with this thing

lame update #100

Alternator is only 55 amp and despite being upgraded form stock 35amp a few weeks ago is not enough to handle the 2 compressors at idle, when driving and revs are up it's ok.

Got a red top ultima battery in there now also

Should be fine to run as is and just keep an eye on everything over the next few weeks

heading down to grab it from the mechanics tonight

lame update #99:

Picked up the car but trying to sort out a charging issue. Had the alternator/battery/voltage regulator all replaced about a month ago so drove it straight from the suspension shop to my mechanic for him to dig a bit deeper.. maybe the alternator is a lemon.

but driving between the 2 places hell it was fun driving it. rode real nice.... I'd say a bit more plush

It's running no front shocks at the moment but I think I will have them put in just for peace of mind. for some reason, it freaks me out thinking there is no shocks.

its tomorrow now.

[Alex@BagRiders]

I love the progress and can't wait to see more pictures!

lame update #77:

Power/Air Lines are all run along the frame
Tank is back from the powder coater
Tank/Compressors are all mounted up
Pressure switch was faulty and is being replaced with another one
Mounting points for height sensors are all measured up and just need to be bolted on and connected

Should be picking it up tomorrow so stay tuned for some more pictures soon

Its nearly been a month since I last drove this thing looking forward to getting behind the wheel again

Well, if you gotta drag something, I figure the muffler is probably the cheapest and easiest to replace. Yes no?

I'm worried that if it hits a large bump or crack it could shunt the exhaust backwards. I know its a long shot but that could make its way up to the manifold & block

Finding out if the exhaust place next door to the suspension place can do it this week, if they cant I will get it done later elsewhere
