Buying bags need help
Ok a couple months ago I went trough this whole suspension board looking for information on lowering my 3/4 ton now stupid me forgot to bookmark any of the pages I found that had information I needed. Ok now on to my question I found three types of bags it seems everyone is running firestone, conitech and for the life of me I can't remember the last brand and it is the one I liked the most it had internal bumpstops. anyone know what brand these are I do remember they had a similar design to the conitech bags. Now that I have my frame all preped and painted I am ready to install the Suspension. I already have the adjustable panhard bar and 3" drop spindles but need those bags. and getting the brackets from suicide doors. Thank you all in advance

Thanks that is what I was looking for as for what I am doing I plan on running the Air bags more for comfort then laying frame. As for function of the truck I still want to be able to tow a trailer and I think airbags are the way to go as for money I am doing it one step at a time. Going to just get bags and plumb them up with lines and valves will get pumps and tanks at a later time. Becuase I still need lots of other parts to finish the body work and get the engine in not to mention paint and the bed wood. But thanx again for the help.
ok looking at Slam what sizes do you think I need up front and in back.

On the site I think they compare them size wise to the firestones, which you would want to run 2600's all the way around. I think that the model number for slams is RS 72's I know they have different pressure ratings, but if ur just looking for ride and towing then you wouldnt need say a 300psi bag, you'll save money that way, I think that mine are the 175psi's . Its been so long. If you're looking for good brackets for the front suicide doors has a kit that is really nice and runs about 60-70 bucks. Hope this helps a little
