3H Digital Control System

Air Lift Performance’s 3H Digital Control System allows up to five user-defined pressure presets with a manual mode option to allow you to control the vehicle independently at all four corners.

The handheld digital display controller included with the kit gives a full color readout of air tank pressure and airbag pressure with a rotatable keypad. System updates are automatically updated through the mobile app that can be downloaded through the Google Play Store and Apple. You can use your mobile device to control wirelessly through your Bluetooth connection.

The ECU and air valve are combined to limit wiring, so it is fully plug and play. Raise to your desired ride height with the turn of the key automatically so anyone can drive your vehicle.

Air Lift Performance 3H combines pressure-based control with ride-height sensing technology. While both types of air management have been utilized before, this is the first product to harness the benefits of both systems—instantly improving suspension control, performance, and vehicle ride flexibility.

Electric Steering Rack Conversion

For use with 2003 and older Crown Vic suspensions, this kit from ATP Designs allows you to convert your factory Crown Victoria hydraulic power steering rack to a 2015+ Mustang electric steering rack.

The benefits of this conversion include:

• A Mustang rack has a much quicker ratio at about 14:1 versus CV, which is about 17:1 ratio.
• You’ll have no more issues figuring out how to get power steering with a Coyote swap. Typically, you either buy a drive setup to add a P/S pump to the Coyote or run the Volvo electric pump. You no longer have to deal with any of those.
• As well, you no longer need to worry about hydraulic fluid leaks, coolers, or high-pressure hoses and custom fittings for them.
• You’ll also get much better steering feel from the consistent Mustang assist. The Mustang E-Rack has a very nice default assist feel.

Complete GT-Sport Chassis

The mid-1950s F-100 is the epitome of a classic design. Legions of enthusiasts consider it the most beautiful pickup ever built. Now, beauty can be more than skin deep with the advent of Art Morrison Enterprises’ expertly engineered and precision crafted GT Sport chassis for the 1953-’56 F-100. With it, the original I-beam axle, leaf spring suspension, worm-and-sector steering, and 60-year-old drivetrain can be replaced with contemporary technology.

Up front you’ll find AME’s “Sport” independent front suspension with beefy upper and lower control arms, adjustable sway bar, and greaseable bushings that work in concert with premium coilover shocks. Like the company’s other truck chassis, you have a choice of two different ride heights. One is quite low and requires that the bed floor be raised 3 inches. The other provides a “standard” ride height and requires no modifications whatsoever.

Mar-K Manufacturing designed a raised floor just for AME’s low ride height chassis, making this modification a snap. The extra rigid frame, which features 2×6-inch main rails, is designed to accommodate a variety of exhaust systems and provide optimum ground clearance. A 4-bar rear suspension with Johnny Joint rod ends and a Panhard bar keep the 9-inch rear solidly planted for optimum acceleration and cornering. Premium coilover shocks tailor the handling and ride to your requirements. Integrated into the chassis just behind the 9-inch housing are fuel tank mounts that allow for a much safer location and helps with the overall balance of the vehicle.

Like all Art Morrison GT Sport chassis, the required body mounts, core supports, running board, and bumper mounts are included—all fixture-welded by Morrison technicians to provide you with a true “bolt-on” build.

Initially, the chassis comes with mounts for Small Block Ford, Big Block Ford, and Ford Coyote 5.0L engines (with potentially more options to come) and virtually any standard or automatic transmission combination. An optional pedal mount assembly makes for a clean installation. AME’s computer-designed frame is the perfect foundation for a “Resto-mod” truck of the highest order; one with a contemporary stance, great handling, and a comfortable ride.

1956 Ford Pickup RTX Instruments

With a unique, arch-shaped speedometer, the ’56 F-100 dash historically went two ways: keep the original instrumentation or fill the dash and start drilling holes for antiquated round gauges.

Now, with these new instruments from Dakota Digital, you can have that timeless look of the large, sweeping speedometer while enjoying the latest technology. A full-color TFT message center keeps you in the know. It also opens the possibility for additional auxiliary readings, ensuring this bolt-in kit is the last gauge you install in your Effie!

The RTX series is the latest from Dakota Digital. Every effort has been put forth to incorporate OEM design elements regarding the layout, face styling, and indicators. A casual glance may dismiss these as original equipment, but once you hit the switch and the LED backlighting comes on, all doubts will be removed.

Starting from scratch, CNC-machined housings are filled with electronics designed and built in-house. The high-definition TFT message centers can be fully configured to display just about any piece of information needed. As you’ve come to expect from Dakota Digital, the RTX series utilizes a central control box to make installation and setup as easy as possible.

Crown Vic Swap Coilover Conversion

This QA1 Crown Victoria Pro Coil System is a great option for anyone looking for fully adjustable ride height and valving control. Choose a spring rate and adjustability that fits your driving style, adjust the valving to match, and you are on your way. These shocks also utilize a fully threaded body that allows you to adjust your ride height for the perfect stance or to finely tune the weight balance for superior handling.

Specially designed for QA1’s Pro Coil Systems, the American-made lightweight high travel springs have fewer coils and a smaller wire diameter, resulting in increased travel due to the larger distance between the coils. They reduce unsprung weight and react faster, optimizing suspension performance. Multiple spring rate options are also available and have been successfully tested in various applications, from casual street driving to hard core race applications.

Adjustable Pro Coil System features include:

• Available in independent compression and rebound double adjustable, or simultaneous compression and rebound single adjustable
• Lightweight billet aluminum coilover shocks
• High travel springs easy
• Bolt-in installation ride height adjustable
