  • Almost.

    I've been leak testing for about an hour now and have managed to decrease the compressor times from once per minute to once every 6 minutes and I have touched the fittings in the trunk yet.

    Progress is happening.

    • So I just took my first ride. It's crazy bumpy, and there's sone really odd sounds almost like a rotation. I had the pressures at 80 all around because I'm unsure of where to even begin.

      My gauges aren't reading properly, and one of them dumps air the moment I feed air to the bag.

      Some kinks to work out and I'll be headed home.

      • Congrats on the first drive! I have the same bags on my gto in the front. 80 pounds is nearly maxxed out height wise for me and rides like poop. I normally ride at 50-60 psi

          Which bags do you have?

              I've opted to work on getting my build driveable before I pick up a set of new wheels to build so that'll come later.
              But as for pictures, ask and you shall receive.





              I'm still going to work on dialing in the rear but here's currently:

                  I've got a few creaks and clunks to figure out. I'm hoping once the bags break in that may help. And I've tracked down a ton of leaks. I went from the compressor turning on once a minute, and today it hasn't kicked on at all without me causing it to. I still have two leaks left that I'm aware of, which I just picked up the fittings for a few minutes ago and will tackle tomorrow.

                  I need to work on dialing it in but it's coming together.

                      That guy is like 500 years old so i'm not sure he knows what's going on. There's a wrangler owner across the street and he's not a fan.

                          That seal is perfect.

                          I'm highly considering stepping down to 18s and lay frame.

                            Do it!!

                            Or get tubs and tuck the current wheels. Either option will be awesome.

                              I've considered tubs but I'll need a few more mods other than just tubs to lay frame without problems on 19s.

                              But my 19 tires are $300 a pop, and 18s are $90 hahahaha.
