Bags Vs. Coils

Hey guys,

I have a 72 LWB C-10, I'm in the process of lowering my truck and need to decide on a conventional 4/6 lowering kit or putting bags on the rear end. I want to be able to do some heavy duty towing and I hear bags are a great way to lower the rear of your truck while maintaining towability. Can anyone give me some feedback on how the ride is with bags? Should I just go bags all around if I do? I have heard the ride with bags can be stiff and jumpy. Anyone have any feedback?

Also, if I go the conventional route what would be the best kit to go with? I am thinking a 4/6 drop, but I want the truck to be as close to level as possible. I am not a huge fan of having a rake. A small, very small one is acceptable but I am leaning toward none at all. Is a 4/6 even the right kit to use? I don't want to have to notch the frame. Can I get away with putting on larger tires? Anything would help guys... Thanks in advance.

P.S. As you can see, the ass end is just a bit higher than level. I just want to drop it a little bit. Any suggestions?

Brian
