suitable for 89 Chev K1500.

They match the K1500 89 Chevs perfectly. Installation was easy, the air duct was more than adequate. You do an excellent job.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • So far so good

Great quality and easy assembly!

Great louver system! Easy installation and high quality hose set. This kit was installed on my 96 C1500 1/2 yard gravel support. The truck has 2 inch struts in the back. The squat was still there though, it did its job and the truck handled well.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Good, but not great

lifted my truck Shocks, Struts and Suspension

I needed a little more cargo capacity so I tried these air shocks. At 100 psi the rear of my truck has risen almost 2 inches. It helped a bit with the load capacity and of course rides a bit rougher so overall they performed as expected. I raised the front torsion springs so now I have the cheapest and most basic 2" suspension.

Pros
  • Handy Thing
Cons
  • Clarity

Great set up!: Shocks

This was my first time installing air shocks and Gabriel made it easy with the included hose kit. Revain sent them out on time and included all the details needed. However, they contained no instructions. Although it wasn't a problem. The dampers only work one way and using the hose kit is pretty easy. My only concern is the quality of the hose and fittings. I pumped them up to 100psi and checked the pressure over the next few hours to look for leaks. There were no leaks. I'm happy so far, but…

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only

As described and fast delivery. Would buy again if needed. Tube fitting parts were found that were pre-installed on the tube and not assembled correctly. I didn't find out until I almost pulled off the steps in the plastic fitting when the threads snapped but didn't tighten. Further examination revealed that the tapered inner piece of plastic on the tube had been inverted. I wish I found this sooner so there are more threads on the plastic fitting. I recommend checking the correct orientation…

Pros
  • As far as satisfied
Cons
  • Will write later
