to bag or not to bag, that is the...
...question.
I know this has been asked before and i've been reading it all, but i can't make up my mind. 1st, this build is a DAILY driver in Houston. when i say daily, i mean my only means of transportation. my original plan for my '49 1/2 ton was to bag it. i'm currently doing the S10 frame swap right now and getting ready to start setting up suspension. i love the look of these trucks low. was never planning to "lay frame" or anything, just low. but with all builds plans and ideas change. i still love the idea of being LOW but having the ability to adjust that if needed. BUT, i also want to be able to drive the living $hite out of it...and the further i get into the build the more i want to put some decent power in front of this truck and i want it to handle w/out worry. i'm now wondering about just going with a nice leaf or coil over set up (rear) and good drop spindles/springs up front and running it reasonably low. The question/idea is: Adding something adjustable, like air ride, is also going to add something else to maintaine. (bags, tank, water trap, comperssors, valves, etc.) is that worth it? I swear, the amount of time i spend changing my mind,....i could build 2 trucks!
