Best way to lower a truck on air----the cheapest
What have you guys done/used to c-notch and lower your trucks.
I want to lower mine, but the prices on everything add up quickly. What do you need and what don't you need? I want to retain my factory bed.

Re: Best way to lower a truck on air----the cheapest
Not to be whatever, but bagging a truck and cheap don't usually work together. I haven't done a c10 before, but just be prepared. It's going to cost a lot more than you think to have a good reliable setup.

Re: Best way to lower a truck on air----the cheapest
im going to do most of the work myself and have a great mechanic I use that will do everything else I can't. So im not worried about labor.
I basically want to see what route everyone took with their builds. What parts did they buy which air ride set up. Or did they piece it together.

Re: Best way to lower a truck on air----the cheapest
check the vendors section. Usually some pretty good deals. It will at least give you a start. I hear a lot of good things about porterbuilt

You can get all the bolt in brackets for the truck and bolt in c-notch pretty cheap. Front and rear bags are cheap also and you can just hook them up to shrader valves for now, and then buy the tank and compressors later if you want.
