Question Air bags if u please

I've have a '72 Short bed with factory leaf springs in the rear and I need to lower it 4.5 to 5 inches to match my front. I was thinking of air bags because I realy dont know what else to do. Any info would be helpful thanks.

You would have way more luck if you post this thread in the suspension forum, I don't know much about suspension or I'd help answer your question.

Re: Air bags if u please

rear flip kit and posiably blocks would be cheaper and just as good. with that size drop you might need a 2.5" bolt-in c notch...

You can lower up to 6" without having to notch. There's plenty of guys on here running that low without it including myself.
