Trouble!!!
I got the new windshield back from the shop. BUT it was supposed to be tinted green and it does not fit that  good :(
Looks good from a distance but the corners...
I´ll have to grind those off :(
I also tried to find some place for the front shocks. Not easy...
Here I should remove a part of the frame near the spring pocket and I´m not sure if the shock would still fit :/  The length of the shock is 42 cm.
And  the exhaust... I need to modify it to get more room for the tires and the airbags.
And the summer is coming fast :o

I painted the front air bag mounts:
I also modified the lighter/ash tray to hide the pressure gauges:

Now I´m working with the front bags...
First I removed the coil spring and took some measurements.
Here are the parts for the cup and lower control arm attachment:
I´m going to bolt the cup through the hole for the original shock.
And heres the lower plate:
And the bag in place:

Next I´m going  to weld the lower bag plate to the lower control arm plate, but I still need to cut some more tubing to fill a small gap between them ;)
And then I need to figure out where to put the shocks... :/

I´ve been working with the air suspension wiring. Now it´s almost finished,  I just need to connect the valves to the control box and the + and - wires to the cars system.
I used this picture as a reference:
And heres my system. I used a car audio parts to get it more simple.
Btw, heres the fixture for the electrics,  compressors and the tank:
