what size rims are you tuckin?
Swisswill, I have quite a few things to do yet to get this thing on the road. if any of you are thinking of getting Ridetech,order the large 5 gal. tank and the two compressors, i might have to change the one in the 69 Dart shown here, my avatar pictures shows my 70 big block, the system on this one works better to get the car up with no problems. the larger tank is the way to go. The ridepro 3e is in the 69 Dart. I'll have to get them on the phone to see if I can ad a second tank or i might have a system for sale.... Mop, i saw your car last year at the National, you have a beautiful car, after talking to you, i ordered a 5 speed to put in this build, they owe you a beer! everybody, I appreciate your comments, it makes a build much more fun. cheers

Thanks for the compliment...did you mean Mopars in the park?
I agree that the larger tank is the way to go...I used a 3 gallon tank and it's only good for one drop and rise. Also only running one compressor so it takes a couple of minutes to fill back up.
Back to the shocks for a minute.....I was curious about the front shocks you have installed on the RMS suspension as shown in your picture.
I wanted to run those smaller diameter shocks but was told they were not designed to handle the load. What shocks are you running up front on this car? Are they for mock up or what is the model number? I was considering changing from the double bellows to that newer 104 model until I saw your pics.
Thanks,
Swisswill, The problem is lifting the car when it's bottomed out, The rear shocks are fine, everything worked great until we installed the engine, the 70 dart has no promblems lifting the big block, but I do have the stock front end on this one. I cant say that the ride impressed me, but man the stance it gives, love it!!!! If you are buying the system from Ridetech, I would definitly get the 5 gal with the 2 compressors. I also purchased the level pro system for both cars, but haven't gotten to installing them on both cars yet. I also got the air pod on both cars, but that's up to you, but I find having all at one spot make it easier and clean.I too am curious what springs you are running up front. They definitely look like 7000's, not the new 104's. I spoke with Tony last night and he strongly encouraged me to go 1000's all the way around. We'll see where the plane lands on the one. Also curious why the 3 gallon isn't enough in your opinion. I hear that 3 is more than enough for these smaller cars. Guys are running the 3 on Camaro's and Nova II's without issue. Curious why your experience is different. Are you continuously inflating and deflating your cars?
The front's are 18" and the rear 20". The front is real darn close to the fenders, unfortunatly the backspacing isn't enough. I would prefer to have it a bit lower once I drive it. I really don't want it to look like a 4x4. I might have to change the front. Sucks, Unfortunatly Boss wheels don't offer a custom back spacing.what size rims are you tuckin?

Looks like Tony shot the video. I guess I need to get out to Kanata cruise more often. Been out only once this year. Where in Ottawa are you?
Shop is in Ottawa east, haven't been in Hazeldean Mall this year, way to much traffic leaving from east to the west.
