    Firestone R4Tech hybrid air/spring suspension questions

    Does anyone know how much the 4-Link system from Kelderman costs?

    Firestone R4Tech hybrid air/spring suspension questions

    From what I have heard, the Talon system isn't as "bolt-in" as they say it is and their customer service isn't good.

    Firestone R4Tech hybrid air/spring suspension questions

    Not yet. I'm still planning on it, especially since I'm getting some 19. 5's to go on the truck soon. It will probably be at least July before I can try this out because I'll be stuck here till about June and wont get leave till July or so. It's still in the plans though, and if I have the funds...

    Firestone R4Tech hybrid air/spring suspension questions

    That's pretty much what I plan on doing, but I want the Airlift Wireless Air system to go with it.

    Firestone R4Tech hybrid air/spring suspension questions

    Hmm... maybe you're right. I wonder how the system would work if you replaced the "J-spring" with a solid traction bar? Of course you would have to make a forward mount that would allow it to move back and forth without letting it go up or down, but I think that would work really well. On the...

    Best trailer tires and source?

    Those are the two tires that I had in mind. I found a few places online that have 16" aluminum wheels for around $76 or so. Some others were around $126 a rim. I'll definitely have to do my homework because 6 wheels and tires for the trailer and 6 tires for the truck isn't gonna be cheap. . lol.

    Firestone R4Tech hybrid air/spring suspension questions

    I was thinking the same thing, but after looking into the kit more I noticed that the bottom "half leaf" isn't really a leaf spring at all. They call it a J-Spring but only the small curved piece in the middle is a spring. The lower link is actually solid. After piecing together what I would...

    Best trailer tires and source?

    Thanks, HBarlow. I won't be towing the trailer that much, but when I do it will be for a minimum of 800 miles one way and the added sidewall thickness would really make me feel better.

    Firestone R4Tech hybrid air/spring suspension questions

    Thanks for the link. I think those might work better in my situation since they mount on the bottom of the axle as opposed to the front side. I'm trying to find some pics of a stock spindle mount for a 2007 or so 3500 so that I can have a set of lowering spindles built for it. I'm wanting to set...

    Best trailer tires and source?

    Not to get too far off-topic here, but alot of guys have recommended going to the 16" wheel over the 15" wheel. What are some good brands of wheels and where are the best places to get them? I have a 40' enclosed triple axle that has 15's on it and I would really like to switch to the 16's.

    Firestone R4Tech hybrid air/spring suspension questions

    Sorry to hear they're not making them for your truck. I have been thinking about piecing together a kit myself just to save a little money. I was thinking about dropping down to only having 2 or 3 leafs left and use the airbags to support the truck and the leaf springs would mainly be used to...

    I'm thinking about going with this system too as soon as I get back to the states. I would love to hear some more input. Bump to the top!

    exhaust manifold choices??

    Sure do!:D The main guy, Cody, that works there hangs out over on one of the other Cummins forum alot. Here you go: LoveFab INC. |

    exhaust manifold choices??

    That's not actually a homemade manifold. That's the LoveFab Twin Turbo Kit for 6. 7's. It was one of the first twin kits on the market to use the stock turbo in conjunction with an S400 series.

    19.5s........Fascinating!!

    Which finish did you go with? It's hard for me to decide between the Machined and Chrome finish. I like how easy chrome is to take care of and clean, but I like the deeper color of the machined finish.
