I took a few photos of my air seat install. It went very well it fits perfect. I tied into the airshift switch and ran the line under the cab. i can open the door to the master cylinder with the seat slid back. The ride is so much nicer than the old spring seat.

The install was pretty strait forward. I just had to drill new holes and run the air line. The only thing I did was make sure the slideing plate on the bottom of the seat is far enough back so that I can slide the seat back and access to the cover to the master cyl. If you dont mind where did you find your seats?

It was finally nice outside, so I hooked up an 8ft piece of 1/4" copper tubing underneath the floor to on the firewall under the hood. I only had to buy a few fittings and the copper tubing from Home Depot. I have a 3ft piece of fuel line protecting the copper tubing directly under the cab, then I just used 3/8" plastic wire loom for the rest. I did install a shutoff valve under the hood should I have to kill the air to the seats.
