You dnt need an alignment everytime u raise and lower your car. U bag it, find a comfortable tide height and take it to get aligned at THAT height. The alignment will change throughout the range of suspension travel but at that specific height its spot on.

Thanks for answering my questions about air!

you don't. it comes back to within spec as long as you go back to ride height like i said earlier in this thread.

now its time for a shameless plug: whoever wants a digital air bag set up for relatively cheap (hopefully socal people) PM me.

They're OEM fogs with a yellow vinyl over them (not sure of the brand, had them wrapped at a shop). I'm using a 3000k 35w HID kit in them. No issues so far.

Got the positive camber issue fixed. Turns out the first alignment was completely wrong.

Just bent two small aluminum strips into "L" shapes to mount the tank. there are no valves per se...the V2 uses a manifold. It's mounted on the driver's side towards the front of the spare tire area.
