Damn Lance you let my cat outta the bag....haha All good man. pmill the brass was drilled and tapped to a 7/16-20 if i remember right. took a lot of pipe dope, teflon tape, and minor tweaking to get them mostly leak free (the inboard drivers side has a really really small leak). original plans were to run bag on bars but they wouldn't fit right without relocating a lot of stuff. didnt have the time to have the taco in the shop that long. local fab guy (grip from neg camber) did all my set up. he simply called me and asked you trust me right. i told him ya. and he simply said ok dont freak out when you get down here and hung up. here are a couple other pics of the set up.

im not tryin to be a dick at all..but is the point of doing this type of setup just to say you have airshocks instead of bags? or is there really any type of advantage to this? cuz i wouldnt think this type of setup could ever be superior to a airbag/shock combo setup...just wondering? either way it looks good and is something different!
