Thanks for sharing the picture, ride height info, wheels/tires. Very helpful.

Shop class is about learning so have them do a the math/economics (their budget & completion timeline) of the project in class. Add up the costs of an air set-up (bags, plates, tank, compressors, system controls, air-line) & then do the math for a decent budget static drop set-up (spindles, cut a coil, & a flip kit). Calc out some labor hours for the effort on both.
Budget static drop gets it done & out on the road sooner since it's much easier on the wallet.
