Front air bags help.

I'm trying to build a front air bag set up for my 91suburban.it's not for show or hopping just a cruiser. I'm looking to buy all the parts but I wanna know exactly what I need.I wanna start the front then do the rear later. So far I've read thy I need single port bags and the brackets. I dnt know what size of air lines I need size of fittings and valves. Compressor and tank size? Gauges? Any information Or better ideas would really help.
Thanks!

single port 1/2 slam specialties, 1/2 line, 1/2 fittings, 1/2 smc valves.

you can get all out it from
http://*******************/catalog/-6...ze-chevy-parts

any Viair more than $150 will work, having 2 is better

3 gallon for quick recovery
5 gallon if you want more air on demand, but takes longer to air up
10 gallon if you have time for the pressure to build up

more air the longer you can go up and down between air ups
but the more air the longer you have to wait for the pressure to be enough to lift your truck

Ok how many valves will I need? What kind of fittings do I need?
No relays or pressure switches? Fill valves or dump valves?
Sorry bout all the questions, I just really wanna get everything I need.
Thanks for the response!
