The truck has Porterbuilt tubular control arms , 4 link, HD sway bar, air ride, Accuair E-level, KYB shocks, 4 link stabilizer bar, tubular crossmembers, Wilwood brake components, rack and pinion steering.

Heres an updated pic of the truck after I painted the center of the wheels gray, and a pic of my Riviera, it also has air ride and Accuair on it

Love the truck. I'm a sucker for a slammed Riv' too. One day I'll have one.

I have a '72 Burb with Porterbuilt's Stage 1 -- didn't want to lose my rear seat and go for the full slam. I'm assuming you like the Accuair system since you have it on both vehicles. I'm really wanting to go that route at some point.

DUDE! The Apache is awesome. Dream truck! I wanted to buy the No Limits 55 but the wifey said NO. Would not allow a Ford in the garage. HA! I love my wife. Said GM only. The color, stance and build is very nice. I'm also in the DFW area - Keller - we should connect at an event here locally. Sept 20th is Cowtown Cruisin for a Cure in Ft. Worth Sundance Square. We will have our Camaro and Trans Am there. Hope to see the Apache and Riviera in person soon.
