I decided to go with air shocks to help level the ride, but I did not want to deal with having to fill the shocks anytime I needed to load the van. I decided to look around for an air lift system that would use an on-board compressor to add the needed air. I found the part while on Rock Auto. Their price was over $185.00. So I decided I should be able to find it for less money and I was right. Here on Amazon the price was $135 and shipping was free. The kit arrived with all the tubing, fittings, and the control and compressor. The manufacturer claims that it will fit ANY air shock system, which also prompted me to buy it. Before installing the system with the air shocks I purchased from Delco, I decided to see if everything fit. It appeared that the fittings and hose that came with the kit was larger than the lines that came with the air shocks. I decided to call the company to see if an adapter was available to make it work. It turns out they had nothing to make it work with the shocks I had. I felt a little disappointed since the package and the manufacturer stated it fits with ANY system. In order to make this work, I decided to head to Lowe's and visit the plumbing supply department. There I found a compression fitting that had the right threads for the shock and the the correct fitting for the air line. All for $1.97 for each fitting. Installed everything and it works great. No leaks and the compressor is not too loud. ![]() The Definitive Guide to Lift: A Scala-based Web Framework (Expert's Voice in Open Source) $39.99 This book by itself has made me feel dubious about Apress books. I'm familiar with the authors' work through the lift mailing list and can't see how they let Apress publish this in the state it's in. Perhaps they had no choice in the matter. Wait for another book. In the mean time use online resources. As for me, I'm going to throw my copy in the recycling bin even though I could return it. I refuse to inflict this book on someone else. |
