thanks! i'm really happy with the way things are turning out
so far, they're great. i haven't heard many people complain about them. i like the adjustment feature, but it was either too soft or too hard. now i can change them from in the cab. although, they are stiffening up now that it's colder outside. i'll post some more info later in the week about their ride quality
here's a vid of how the system works:

That's a pretty cool setup. Can you really tell a difference with the amount of adjustment you can make? Also what is that noise in the video? It was killing me while watching it.

thanks. it was easier than i had anticipated
yeah, there's a difference. there's one stretch of (poorly) patched road, so i got to test it out. last week, i had it on setting 1-1 for a smooth ride. last night it was at 9-9, and it hurt going over that patch. i've tried every combination and you can feel a slight difference. you won't notice it much from one setting to the next, but every 2 or 3 settings you can feel it.
that noise is the auto-focus. i didn't hear it when i was recording. in retrospect, i should have set it to manual focus. sorry 'bout that

thanks! i try to keep the corrosion away, so i'll see how it goes this winter 
it is very cool. i want to measure what the pressures are and see if i can't rig up something a bit more permanent.
oh, i forgot to mention. the my-ride system was free

OOhhhh NICE! Gotta love free! I was measuring for new front shocks last week and ended up throwing my originals - Yes 1986 ORIGINAL shocks in the trash. They where shot & too short for my BJ spacers anyways. How do you like the Rancho's? Are they extended length? I notice your sig says 2" lift, BJ spacers I assume?

yeah. i can't wait to see how well (or if) they'll fit. i've searched around, but all i can fine is someone posts something like "i've heard mustang seats fit. anyone know for sure?"
i will be taking pics, and i'll let everyone know how (or if) i got them to fit
