I can assure the captains out there that with EZ bracket the shocks will fit with room to spare

 

[albertaduke]

Link? - I have a mate VERY strapped for cash looking for something like that.

shocks are branded RFY from china and they don't look cheap at all same idea as new chinese headlights available on amazon

 

[albertaduke]

I can only hope they're not filled with 'BLACK
AIR'

point well taken I don't plan on checking that!! the B A refer to, in the fire bombing business ,to a violent downdraft needing lots of power to recover from . not a pleasant situation to be in

Wow so that's what Black Air is. I was wondering that, this place is so educational

Fire tanker pilots epitomize people with the "right stuff" - brass balls and mad skills! Selfless heroes in service of the public good. Their true grit was immortalized in this film from which this innocuous clip avoids the true life and death risks of the folks engaged in the airborne firefighting milieu...
