other than the air ride tech and kp components, what other bolt on air ride suspensions are out there?

There's the FBI kit and also the Air Lift kit.

any ideas on how well built that FBI kit is? i need to order something different this week. my two link is tearing apart my frame. and i need something now. and $500 bucks is more pleasing to the pocket book then the KP kit.

It's mostly heims which will have to be replaced proably yearly and I've seen people have serious issues with customer service from them.

can you buy these heims from auto parts stores around here? or do they have to come from FBI?
another concern im having which happened to my panhard bar failure over the weekend is the heim joints being pulled out of the bar striping the bolts and bars. i assume this is something ill have to worry about with this kit, huh?

The joint pulling out of the bar isn't due to the joint it's probably due to the stress from the 2 link. :read:
You could pick some up from joe.

doesnt the KP have heim joints?

On the passenger axle bracket, the rest are poly bushings. People have had to replace the KP heim as well.

if u want a long lasting kit, or ure runnin big rims or big horsepower go with the suicide doors triangulated 4link kits, they are cheaper and way stronger than the other junk on the market, may take little more time to set up but its worth it to have a solid suspension

i dont have time waiting for a shop to do my install. or i would defenitly have Joe do me a tri 4 link. i need to get this done in one weekend. my truck is daily driven 150 miles. and its my only mode of transportation.

ive made my mind now. Kp becuz the Blitz kit is a reverse tri and the upper bars would make me move my tanks from their location. something i dont have time to do. thanks for the advice guys.
