Is this everything that is needed to balance your shocks?

Yes that looks like everything, also If you want to add a gauge go to Gadgets site, I did mine just like Gadget said and worked great. Nice to see how much air is in there.

That is what I have, and then in time I made a braket and added a gauge. I also added another air inlet for car air shocks, blocking off one feed to an air shock. The idea having a easier place to add air, since the kit on the 1600 is near to impossible to reach.
it can be done, but it ain't easy.

Here's a pic of my gage. I used an old bungee cord hook, JB welded the gage to it and attached to the rear bag guard.
Again, I bought 100' of the air line, have shipped a lot to forum members and have plenty left. Any body need some send me a PM, it's free. Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Josh, then I wasn't bidding against you. And, I didn't get it, either.
