    I hope all the people who bought them for $1800 don't feel bad that we sold them for $650.

    They look great. Makes our 11:00x20's look small.

    Guys I really made a boo-boo -warning carnage!

    Everyone who purchased one of the power steering kits will have a spare drag link. There should be someone close that will give you one.

    Power steering kits

    I just wanted to thank everyone on SS for being so great to work with. The Vietnan Veterans of America, Chapter 920 in Denton, Texas managed to put together enough money to buy one of the pallets of power steering kits from GL a couple of weeks ago. We were not intending to make money on the...

    Power steering kits

    Just got the word from UPS Freight: They are going to change all the rates to small package rates. They said that the highest one should be around $82. Thanks for understanding. This has been quite a headache. It's nice to see all the positive replys. Jim

    Power steering kits

    For all of those who purchased power steering kits from Vietnam Veterans of America: UPS overcharged us by sending the units via UPS Freight instead of regular UPS Ground. We are in the process of filing a claim to have the charges refunded. They have already agreed to refund 60% of the...

    Air-O-Matic Question

    We didn't fool with the settings on the system. There is a shut off valve in the air supply line that was only cracked open when we first tried it. Once we opened the supply valve all the way it really made the difference.

    Air-O-Matic Question

    Just did a test drive with the air turned on all the way (that's another story). It's amazing! Did you know that you can actually turn a deuce with one hand? Still need to get all the hoses tucked away and tied up but I had no idea that it could turn that easy.

    Air-O-Matic Question

    Kevin, We just installed our kit today. It was an all day job but a lot of fun. I did notice one glitch in the kit: it says to drill two holes in the inner fender to run the hoses through. The holes are almost one inch in diameter and the centers are only one inch apart. I guess that's...

    12.50 R20's or, I'm in love again...

    Awsome looking country, the truck is not bad either. We just put on 1100x20's yesterday and there is a noticeable difference in the height of the truck. I'm excited to see if we can get any more speed out of it. I talked with a volunteer fire fighter the other day who said that his...
