Boss Air Suspension Assist Kit (1 Viewer)

[JohnCapoccia]

My back end was drooping pretty badly when loaded up, even with OME medium with extra leafs

So I just installed Boss air bags

It was pretty easy, maybe 2 1/2 - 3 hours total. I have no idea how they’ll perform off road, but it sure looks good!

They're a great piece of kit, and like you found out, a piece of cake to install. I've been running airbags (first Firestone ride-rites that I cobbled together, and then the beautiful Boss kit!) on my 60 for decades now, an absolute necessity if you're hauling variable loads over variable roads and terrain.
Enjoy!

Woah those sway bar links are a little short

How do those springs look without all the gear?
What’s your rear shackle angle look like with those airbags fully inflated?
The airbag looks like it’s doing all the heavy lifting even arching the springs.

No they’re not short. It appears that way because it’s on jackstands

Without the gear, the rear is slightly in a “stinkbug” position. I’ve never fully inflated the bags. Again, it’s on jackstands so the airbags are not arching the springs.

Here’s a pic of the bag in the normal position without being supported by a jack stand

Now we're talking didn't know it was supported by jack stands before

I had these airbags for years. They will slip on the axle after time.

Thanks for the heads up. I’ll keep an eye on it and will check the torque on u bolts from time to time.
