Been waiting on this series going to be killer 👍🏻
Thanks this was a great video installing the air ride system !! Very good detailed on this video !!!!
Can't wait to see this build
This will be a must on the new 589 to make it look like a nice looking truck. The front end is way UP in the air with a large gap in the fender to tire area.
I got this air ride kit on my 2022 389 and I love it
good jab 🤩👍
A sweet new truck, all that work with half assed switches
Nice ride
Is the install any different with non air ride 389 from factory
So all in all that kit makes it looka little better, when it' parked.
Did you guys have problem with the bag rubbing on the coolant pipe on passenger side? I’m have that issue when the bag is expanding hitting bumps

No, we did not have any problem.
The height difference not being adressed is killing me slowly. Spacers should’ve been added to the leaf springs to even it out
Other than a lower ride height, are there any benefits that make this kit better than factory? Better ride quality? Adjustable ride height/air bag pressure? Overinflate for clearance?

No, Its objective is to slam the front end down on the ground

@@TheChromeShopMafiaOK, thank you. I have a 2019 567 with the factory air ride steer axle. It seems to be overly bumpy. Looking for a way to improve it. Thank you for your reply!

Is it possible to put a air ride kit on a 20,000 lbs Steer Axle

As long as it has factory air ride I would think so.
This video makes it seem like this job takes way more money and effort than it's worth ❓
Watch the old show on your fixing up the trucks
I bought a 12 guage single bag conversion kit for a W900. I wish you guys would not sell that! Its a death trap & a POS!!
Will there be issues with the driveshaft with a lower front end?

For this install, typically not. However, we find some trucks are a lil’ more sensitive than others. So, for optimum results, it may be beneficial to adjust rear susp ride height just a tad, OR, modify driveline angle ever-so-slightly.
Does this kit require fuel pump grinding to clear air bag on the Cummins motors ?
