Remember when air shocks were cool!

Does any one have any pics on setups with air shocks? I remember when that was the thing to do. Does anyone know of someone dragging with air shocks?

my old toyota had air rancho's on all 4 corners & i had the coolest truck in high school (12 yrs ago) even though it took 3 min or so to air up to get over the speed bumps because it only had 1/8 airline. i had one of those 5 gal portable tanks with an old firestone compressor that was smaller than a red bull can for the load level bag setups that took 20 min to fill because it overheated after about 5 min of operation...& paddle valves! ya buddy!!!
hell ya it dragged too, but it was the tranny crossmember & front mono leaf spring perches because they hung down so low
i'll see if i have any pics of it anymore & scan them & post (no digi cameras back then either)

SubCulture's Mike Brown in OK just put air shocks on the rear of his Taco'... Looks SICK IMO!
(I hope Mike doesn't mind me stealing his photo!!)

What'd he do to the shocks to make those fittings work? And Fester's Ranger is dope!

yeah that looks pretty sweet lance. ida figured air shocks were ugly/stupid lookin until i saw festers ranger. now my opinion is the complete opposite.
