6" fabtech and air ride

[Tinman]

I'm new to the forum and need help. I have a first gen exp with air ride. I also have a fabtech 6" lift and running 35s. I would like to get rid of the air ride and go to shock and coils. Problem I run into is front air shocks... What can I replace it with without breaking the bank. Any help is appreciated.

I Had air on mine and then had to buy TRQ struts for replacements. They cost me less than $150

Did u have a lift on yours before you got the struts ?

 

[Expd830]

No I had air suspension. So I priced components separately and then then had all parts put on at that time

Are the struts for a 6 in lift? If so can u send info on them and maybe pics please

No The struts were put on there as replacements for my air struts and then my mechanic crank my torsion bar up high enough so that my control arms and other components won’t stretch and I was able to put 35 inch tires on my truck

Oh gotcha....well thanks for ur help...back too looking I guess

By the way QA1 also makes struts for any length that you need that are just like TRQ.
And they’re located in Minneapolis where I’m from right now
