I was just wondering what you guys think about their new air shocks.

is this better for leveling than turning keys? IT's not as cheap, but is it a better solution?

Wow, thats the first i've seen of this. Seems like its more for guys with a lot of weight on their front end, rather than guys looking to lift their truck.

Pretty slick, i wonder what the ride is like.

Anyone install them yet? Any drawbacks compared to cranking t-bars? Seems like they may be the best cure to get 285's on my truck and not rub with the plow on.

I thought a diesel engine was alot of wieght on a front end.. ( not being a smart a$$) that engine wieght was the first thing i noticed when i drove away in my dmax!! don't notice it any more, but that was my first impression. Hope they put those on sale so it don't hurt so much to buy them!! arm

Anyone know if theyre are offered double eyelet mount for the rear? This would be great.... the shock technology with Bilsteins that we all put on with the airbag tech of Firestone that some add for load leveling in towing.

I seen an ad for these in truck tech magazine that says they are specifically designed for gmc/chevy from ends, and that you can get up to 2.5 inches of lift. I called their tech support 800 number and the guy said they probably won't lift any more than half an inch. they will only prevent the front from going down with a load on it, like a plow or heavy front bumper/winch.
I would like to hear the real deal from someone who has already installed them.
