well been slowly piecing together my Airride set up finally got it finished today

2001 fxd,
Compressor- Viair 98C
ASCO 12v solenoid valve for dumping.
3 position toggle next to the horn

 

bad *** man! how do you like the actual ride buddy!

 

Been following your build, looks great, how is the ride with the new air ride?

 

**** the other thing i just realized is that the passanger peg mount would crush the pipe as on the 06 and up dyna that mounts to the swingarm!!!

 

so far the ride is great, adjustment on the fly is jus tabout perfect. way better then both the stock shocks and the tourign shocks. only thing i dotn like about it is the 13.5" eye to eye at full extension just doesnt look right so high up LOL with min the pas pegs are solid to the frame as is the exhaust so there is no travel only the swing arm travels.

 

Looks great, I have been trying to get it going on my bike but every picture I see of the Monroe's shows them white. I gotta say, I checked out your winter build thread and I was hoping you did a build thread for the DIY air shocks too.....for us semi umm mechanically inclined!

 

they monroes come black now at least mine did, if you have any questions feel free to shoot me a PM id be glad to offer advice and suggestions. also have a DIY dyna hard bag thread in here somewheres too thats a bit more advanced then the air ride was but good none the less.

 

You are a genius! What shocks are they?

 

monroe MA785 is the part number. im not to credit on this DIY as i stumbled across other users doing it and figured WTH i can do it too LOL

 

What's the length fully retract and extend? Interesting
