Just the helper bags? I don't have any pics anymore and it's not lowered at the moment. The top bracket bolted to the notch and the bottom bracket went under the spring u-bolt.

Air Ride helper bags
Air Ride on board compressor kit

Next will be TruTrac and 4.11s, then cam and heads. I have been waiting to do this for a long time, I finally can afford the time and parts. I'm pretty pumped.

I am keeping the stock wheels for now, I just ordered some Nitto 420s 275/60/17s.

Great set of parts ordered man! Got the McGaughy's 2-4 drop kit as well. Rides good as hell with the Belltech Street Shocks!
