Two suspension questions - BIASRacing - 01-07-2020

15 pornstar with sleeper.

Cab shocks are shot, the proride looks awesome however im not sure itll work with what I've got and I'm almost certain it won't. Ive got a two lone wet kit, 50 gal tank right behind the cab and my pressure release valve is right behind it..(towards front of the truck)

Question 1 has anyone used the freightliner flb cabover shocks? On paper they look like they fit.

Second question is it possible to run an airline and move the levelers into the truck? Perhaps swap out the leveler for a different knob to control the air.

one thing to keep in mind is that the back of the cab, left-to-right/side-to-side movement is maintained internally inside the OE cab shocks on internationals. -- using a different system inherently will require a separate torque-arm to keep the cab in place side-to-side on the back end... hence the torque-arm that you see that they added to the pro-ride system.

Yes sir indeed. And I think the design is tits. Just dont think it would work. Unless of course I got the lines rerouted and have the prv moved.

You should try to find one you can look at and measure. I have the Proride on my 08 prostar and I LOVE it. I put it on in the driveway in a few hours.
