Rear bag question?
I have a c-notch with 5 inch coils and and 2 inch blocks on back now. If I replace coils with airbag kit in place of coils will it allow me to get rear lower or be the same height. Trying to keep the back out more still has some rake to it. Thx

Re: Rear bag question?
Say you go with a Slam Specialties air bag. That air bag will collapse down to just under 3", which should sit your truck down pretty low when aired out. You can measure how high your coil is now with the weight of truck on it, then the difference to 3" is how much lower it will sit aired out.
Hope this info helps. Travis Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Rear bag question?
I will say lower since you can air it out and it will drop lower then the spring. Ride will probably be better too.
The rear is easy to do..

Re: Rear bag question?
The bags should let you bottom out in the notch.
