Air Ride

Well after a few beers.. i went onto ebay (always a mistake) and bought a used air ride system from a HD.. I have looked at them previously and recall that the shocks will fit with a bit of work on the bushes, the question is where to fit the compressor etc. Have any of you fine baggers fitted a set as this may save me a bit of head scratching... The only other issue is having to tell the missus about the box from America thats due to arrive soon.. not looking forward to that:... more drink required

Thanks DL.. the search was the first thing i tried.. but to no avail..I did remember you fitting the system and saying that it was less hassle than getting HD stuff to fit .. Thanks for the help... Still waiting for it to drop through the door what pressure are you running the shocks at as i seem to have bought a gauge to go with it, it arrived this morning... never drinking and ebaying again
