Vaquero Air Ride Setup $285
Decided to go with a lowering link and rake the trees so I'm selling my current air ride setup; less than 100 miles on everything.
Details: Started as a Harley kit off of eBay with popular Monroe MA-785 Shocks and equally popular Viair 98C Compressor. My buddy runs a car air ride shop so I wound up upgrading all the fittings to 1/4" metal push fittings as kit had a mix of 1/8" and 1/4" tubing with suspect plastic fittings. In the effort to fill the shocks as quickly as possible we upgraded the solenoid valve to a 1/4" brass valve with a Sirai solenoid so both fill and dump sides were 1/4" with reliable hardware. New bushings were also sourced to swap right onto the Vaq rather than drilling out the Harley ones as is commonly done. Everything is all ready to bolt on, wire and go; maybe a 2 hour job taking your time. The way I installed it I relocated the tool pouch to the saddle bag and drilled a couple holes in the tool pouch tray on the battery cover to mount and secure the fittings/solenoid and run wires/lines. I mounted the compressor behind the right side cover with an L bracket bolted to 2 holes drilled in the metal brace for the bottom of the right side cover attachment point. I also drilled a hole in the front of the left side cover for the switch but you can mount it lots of places without drilling anything. I honestly don't like how slow air ride shocks fill up in general and was planning on adding a tank in the saddle bag for "instant up"which would be easy to do and still leave half the bag open. asking $285 shipped in the lower 48. I have a video of it cycling fill/dump I should be able to email.
