That truck looks badass. Careful on speed bumps, though.

My toys... boats and bikes, are all human powered. Cheap, slow and quiet. Lol

Nice. How adjustable is the suspension? Is it just me or does that photo look faked???  :P :P :P

9-10 inches of lift.

so you can go from bottomed out to 10 inched higher? Does the wheels stay flat with the road or does it look like those guys that just cut the springs? I would love to see a video of the truck going from zero to 10 inches. I'm not really into the lowrider thing but the suspension thing is cool.

Ill have it back next week, ill do you a video.  Or you can just youtube air suspension.  Lots of videos.  It's just a air bladder that you can simply pump air into (on board tanks/compressors as high as 200psi) or you can let it out.  You can determine how high you are off the ground at any second.

The SUV I had a year ago had an airbag lift/suspension but it wasn't anything as high tech as the one on Brandt's.  It had about 5.5" of travel and would lower itself 2" when you needed and would raise about 3" from stock height when off roading.  I've got a 3" lift kit sitting in my garage and I'm debating on whether or not I should install it myself or pay someone else to do it.  It sure doesn't look hard, just replacing the front coilovers and adding new, taller springs to the rear.  Anyone here done a suspension lift on their own?

Ya, because ive nevered live in Louisiana with one of these trucks where roads went from paved to gravel to dirt and back at times.  :)

It's one of those things you can sit around and assume if you like, but you'd just be wrong.  LOL
