|
|
I am not sure what airglide suspension is on this 95 KW T600 that I looked at but it dont look anything like the ones KW webpage.
It looks like it has a 3" pipe going perpindular to the frame at the trunions. Air bags were really short like 6" tall. Could this be the AG100 suspension.
Do any of you know what model this is? What is the suspension rating? I didnt have my camera at the time so if anyone can post a picture or diagram, I can point it out.
I was looking at this site but couldn't find anything similar.

| On a 95 more than Likely it would be the Airglide 100 the Airglide 200 came out in 1997 not a bad riding truck but watch it for cracking at the mounts and at the piviots since those pieces are cast alloy. |

Ironeagle,
Thanks for the info. So what happens when the mounts crack? Will I be able to reweld them. What upgrades do you all do when this happens. Also do you know what is the axle rating? Thanks again for your help. |

| Those crack REPLACE THEM If they are the ones coming off the frame. It is impossible to weld cast aluminum at all. Also most of them are rated for 40K in weight. Upgrades the only one I could think of would be urathane bushings and new radius/ toqure arms. |

Take your VIN# to a KW dealer and they should be able to obtain a build sheet on what the specs of your truck are. |
