Re: Drop or Bag - Pros and Cons

Agree on bagging...and it can be adjustable on a relatively small budget...One 5 gallon tank, an electric compressor (or EDC (york compressor on the engine) and dloe's valves and you have four corner adjustability for just 500 or less more than static dropping....

The largest advantage to me is adjustability...you can run it at a 2/4 drop a 4/6 or a 5.5/7.5 drop. and if you ever intend to use your truck as a truck...you can raise it up to haul a trailer or add air to keep it from bottoming out with a heavy load in the bed.

I really like a static 4/6 or 5.5/7 drop but neither would work for me. My driveway has a curb at the bottom and even our minivan scrapes unless we go out sideways and slowly....I had one truck lowered 4/6 and it drug the a-arms every time in and out of the driveway. With bags I can drive with it lower and raise it up a bit to get in and out of my driveway or other similar entrances or speed bumps/etc...
