That was some fancy shizzle back in the day. I remember the upgrade to a Ford 3/4 ton with helper springs and air shocks - and a 390 cubic inch gas sucking pig.... LOL

I can't imagine how much the old trucks and campers swayed around back then. I have air bags with separate valves with Big Bad Fox shocks set on full stiff, Over load spring spacers to make the springs contact sooner and its still a hand full in a 2015 truck.

But I guess the trucks don't have near the power they do now.
