Well, got some more pics and video of the air speed as requested.
Here is where I decided to run the gauge lines into the cab

Here is close up of the valves and wiring. Still need to clean up the gray wires.

And proof that my system holds air!

And finally a video of the rear end dropping. I had to set the camera on the tire, so the view is a little weird, but you get an idea of the speed.

dude im sorry i didnt know you updated. i must have overlooked your update. man teh rear looks good. its a great feeling the first time it goes up and down on its own. the bags are alittle slow but the cool thing is that its manageable. easy to set ride height and no herky jerky movements. im really diggin it. and also youre wishbone looks fine. youre just being picky.

hey that's not bad, gives you a chance to appreciate the air ride watching it go down. not blink and you missed it.

Thanks for the good words guys. I really wanted the set up to be slow. I got the exact speed I wanted. I don't like the stresses on the truck that fast systems introduce. I think this should be good for my needs. I can still drag too.

Nice build. I like how you Z'ed the rear frame. I to like the slow air it makes it easier to set your height. Oh is that a 4-runner bumper? If so do you mind me asking what year or if I'm wrong what yota is it off of?

hey bro love the work but are you going to be covering up the connections were you have your valves connecting because I think when it gets wet and dirty you will have some problems.

Thanks man, it is a 92-95 4-Runner front bumper. I got it online. It was like 117 shipped and the brackets are from FBI, but they didn't fit right. The rear was hanging like 3" below the fenders. I cut a 5 degree wedge out and welded her up and now it sits nice. -ED

Dirty? thats why I have a tilt bed, then it doesn't get any dirtier than the rest of my truck. and I used stainless. As far as the water goes I am not planning on driving in any floods (Sorry Todd, I know that is a sore spot right now) and am not a switch happy guy in fowl weather so it will be" set the ride height and drive" on rainy days. No cover needed. -ED
