What drop is it, it looks similiar to mine, I got 3" coils up front and airshocks in back so I got a bit more of a rake though, I like the way your sits better.

Well release the air from the damn air shocks, the idea of these is to pump them up only when you have heavy stuff in the bed that's causing the rear end to sag.

theyre not pumped up, actually i have them close to the bottom(the right amount) cuz it still pushed the back up, yea right if i put more air in it itll be a retarded rake lol.

was thinking about air shocks for my 84, but Idont want the rear any higher. If Ihear you right air shocks will still lift it a little even though they are at the lowest pressure , Is that right. would only want them for loads, without the rear being raised any with no load.

Re: Dropped!
 
no it just seems lifted cuz i have the front dropped, but it most probably wont lift the back.
