I love the KW and Petes, but it is good to see some other brands. Anyone up for a Western Star????

Can't wait to see the air bags, Steve! Finally she'll be sitting properly on her suspension! I might have guessed you would have gone with PMD's simulated air bags at first, making your own should be a cake walk, after all the other awesome parts you've machined up.
