Just updating. I FINALLY got my shocks installed on the bus. I ended up ruining one of the shocks and having to order another kit. It was completely my fault. While I had one airshock installed and was unable to remove the bolt on the other used shock, I had to drive the bus to get groceries. You are not supposed to drive on them without at least 20 psi in them and since I didn’t have the air lines attached yet to the one I had installed, it ruined the air bladder on that one. I tried to see if I could buy just one shock, but you can only buy the kit. So now I have a spare and plenty of o-rings and air hose! :lol: 8) I am following Rottenkid’s lead and running 40 psi in them for a while to see if they leak. 40 psi is too much for my current load and pitches the bus a bit forward. The ride is so far nicer than the coilovers I had, but they were old so it’s not a fair comparison.
