Air ride seats for my Deuce

[baxter]

Toddm thanks for the reply i'll take a look at that. i hope mine fits without to much trouble I have a gamma goat steering column nice small wheel and I have it adjusted nicely.

I took a few photos of my air seat install. It went very well it fits perfect. I tied into the airshift switch and ran the line under the cab. i can open the door to the master cylinder with the seat slid back. The ride is so much nicer than the old spring seat.

So the steering wheel in those pics is a gamma goat wheel and shaft?

 

[baxter]

That is what I was told when i got it.

Thats what I need to do to my 813 I have a hard time with a stock springer seat! Or find a tilt out of something and make it fit.

The tan seats in your rig are really great looking.
Nice Work

Hey those seats look like some we have, how hard was the install? if anybody wants a seat like these P.M. me

 

[baxter]

The install was pretty strait forward. I just had to drill new holes and run the air line. The only thing I did was make sure the slideing plate on the bottom of the seat is far enough back so that I can slide the seat back and access to the cover to the master cyl. If you dont mind where did you find your seats?

thats a awesome setup

It was finally nice outside, so I hooked up an 8ft piece of 1/4" copper tubing underneath the floor to on the firewall under the hood. I only had to buy a few fittings and the copper tubing from Home Depot. I have a 3ft piece of fuel line protecting the copper tubing directly under the cab, then I just used 3/8" plastic wire loom for the rest. I did install a shutoff valve under the hood should I have to kill the air to the seats.

Todd what is the grey piece with the red tag I cant make out the writing on it. Great looking setup.

they have several other seats as well... about $70- 150 im working on how to mound it to the floor or plate now like the stocker.

while I was up there I also pick up a heated adjustable moto-mirror- 12$
2 like new Grotte 8" spot mirrors $3 ea.
a set of semi- truck air horns $17 (heard a few b4 i picked these)
