help me convert my 53 to a bagged setup

Im wanting to go with an airbag suspension setup. The pictures are showing the chassis as I got it from previous owner (everything else is in bags or parts but the chassis was looking almost complete). Its actually a pretty good home grown frame off resto and upgrade as it sits now.

I dont know whose 4 link or MII IFS setup this is but I would like to run an airbag system on this project going forward.

Can you all make any suggestions or point me in the direction of how I can set up the rear end for bags with the pictured set up?

I'm thinking about installing the step notch and fabricating a new shock bar that could also support the airbag plates. Any recomendations on this? I knot the bump stoips and brake lines will need a re work from the picture.

Also loking for info on where to get the airbag kit for installing in a MII IFS and how to set up the shocks (or where to mount them). What to do with the sway bar set up?

Looking for all good suggestions on what type of bags to use, internal stops, with or without intergral shock systems and what air comp control system to go with.

This will be a driver so crazy bag control and high volume actuation are not necessary.

Appreciate the pointers or suggestions.
