Description

This is my friend Terry's truck and this year he's replaced the springs of the suspension with 'air bags'. Now when he parks up he just drops it down for that instant 'Low Rider' effect! The modification has done wonders for the trucks handling as the rear leaf springs were replaced with a four bar set up to locate the axle. This combined with the air ride means that it now corners like a race car!! The air bags are controlled indipendantly, one for each wheel so if you wish you can raise one side of the truck and leave the other lowered or do the same front to rear... hours of fun when showing off to your mates! Photo was taken at last weekends European Street Rod Nationals at Old Warden, Bedfordshire, UK
