OK... yea, anything from ART is top notch. I have ART on the front and went with Early Classic Enterprises on the rear (airbags and trailing arm doublers etc) I only wanted a 4-6 drop because I have a high power drivetrain and am more interested in function than looks. If you want to use anything from Air Ride, you wont go wrong. Its just that the trailing arm suspension on these trucks is way hard to beat from a performance standpoint, and I didnt want to tinker with near perfection. I went with ART on the front because Early Clasic (which I have on the rear) doesnt make an airbag system for the front, but I liked the ECE rear airbag system on the rear so much that I wanted air on the front. Airbags are completely tunable and very performance enhancing... almost sounds like a contradiction in terms... Air-Ride Performance.... but it sure isnt!
