Looks good!
I saw it driving around the fairgrounds, but wasn't able to find it parked to take a good look at it...

Looks good bro. Are your rear bags mounted to the OEM upper spring perch? And how are they mounted to the axle? I like how you ran the air lines through a bulkhead fitting. Any insight to the rear bag setup would be great. Also, are you running 7" bags in the rear? Thanks

The rear bags do sit in the factory spring perch. I made custom brackets that I welded on to my diff. Because I went over kill with the C notch had to run a triple bellow 2600 bag. had the double bellow in there at first and had to run too much pressure in the rear bags to get the ride height I wanted. I run my back bags at about 36 psi ride height. nice plushy ride. Pm me your email and I will see if I can find some close up pictures the the brackets I made. It's all trial and error 🙂 But well worth it. Ps my I raised my rear frame up about 6 inches

Awesome thread! Nice job on your fab work! I do a lot of air bag stuff, but mostly I convert boat trailers to air ride suspension. Usually run bags in the back of the tow rigs for weight. Love your wagon!
