I think I would spit nails if I walked into one of there stores and they told me it was only one side for that advertised price.

No, it was for both sides! $ 719 was price for "Good Sam Discount,"
$ 59 was for installation and the remainder was the tax.

Just an FYI...I got mine done in Nashville and this was what I was Charged and it was for both sides. I saw that answer on CW and don't know why it was stated only one side. That sure is not what happened with mine.

So is the Center - Point a clean install using the existing mount?

Pretty cool looking system, although I wouldn't be thrilled about having yet another system that requires air. I would have to run valves from my pin box compressor so I could fill the center-point from the front with a push of a button

IMO it's a very easy one....took about four hours...old off and new on and that's it in a nutshell.

Does the Center Point come with shocks as well? Just now looking at it, it looks pretty nice.

Excellent idea! The only problem I have is I have the airlift wireless compressor on my truck, and I didn't see any means to separate frequencies so they would probably talk to each other. I may just have to go to manual.

Good point, I have three fords with wireless air systems. Haven't noticed any problem, but I will check. These systems are wired live to the battery, and parked in the same building. Never noticed any frequency issues.

Guess I could use the Firestone single path system. Have a 10 gallon air tank to install as well for tire airups.

I have 2 identical systems in my truck and they each have their own frequency. They work flawlessly with each other.

You have to mark them in some way so you keep them straight. I put a piece of duct tape on back of my suspension controller so even at night I can feel that tape and know I'm adjusting the right controller.

I have found that the controller for my suspension goes through batteries about 3 times faster than the controller for the lift bags. Although the controller look alike, they do have 2 different type of compressors.

If I get one for the hitch pin and then another one for center point suspension on the trailer......I'd have 4 of those little contraptions sitting in my console. This could get confusing.

I found that felt chair leg pads work well for ID in the dark.

I suppose you have a Select Comfort matress....

I have the select comfort mattress and the trick to making it work is keeping the controllers on my side of the bed

That's good to know they work like that Dave. I may go ahead and remote my hitch pin then. I've already installed the compressor, just never finished.
