Dear all, in the end I ordered the air lift set up. At the moment front is installed and I am more than confident with the result. I think it's real fast and it works great. The options like leak warning are a great help.
I think this took me a big step forward.
System works with 3/8" valves, slam bags, and

WHAT DO YOU THINK???????????????????????????????
Here's the link to a video:

Plans for next weekend are to install the rear bags which will be hard without welding ( without welding because otherwise I am going to get in trouble with the German TÜV). Hope to accomplish this target. In most cases it takes longer than you have thought!
Also I want to lower the rear additionally 2" with lowering blocks, mount a original rear bumber because this should look lower and a tow hitch.

BTW, I use an Range Rover compressor and it works much better than I imagined. Working pressure is 175psi ( which is a lot in my opinion), compressor turns on at 145psi and it only takes 50 seconds from 145 to 175 with an 20 liter tank.:metal: :metal:

Los-
It looks good. Thanks for the details as well as the video.
It's getting there. It won't too much longer before you have it on the road.
:cool:
So, do you need to go with a bolt-on four-bar (link) to keep it legal?

@boxrodz
Thank you. A four link would be a way but I spend a lot of money this year so a four link doesn't seem to be in my budget. I have to find other solutions. I drive the truck every day at the moment and have a lot of fun. Best of all after some work the system doesn't leak not even 1psi in two days! I am realy confident with the speed and options of the system. As I said above next weekend hope to get the rear done.

Hey guys, just wanna let you know that everythig is working great with the airlift set up.
I installed the rear bags several weeks ago and set my hangers 2-3" higher but without a lower stance. So I have to cut my leafs. I am a little bit confused how to handle this because i read if you remove leafs you are going to get in trouble.
N2TRUX told to remove a leaf ut as I said I am not sure about this so what would you suggest me to do. Remove a leaf or two or just to shorten the existing ones. I have a four leaf set up.

Re: How to lower my ride? Please help a newbie.
 

You can't cut rear leafs. Are you running an air over leaf setup?
You can remove 2 leafs from the 4 you currently have for a minumum of 2.
