Coil Spring/Air bag question
I was going to convert to a leaf setup but I am having second thoughts. I want the truck low but am going to be pulling a 5000lb trailer weekly. If I get some drop springs can I also put air bags on the trailing arms to make up for the soft springs?

Re: Coil Spring/Air bag question
Why go through the trouble of springs & bags when you can just use bags alone to get the job done?

Firestone 255c (2500# 6" dia) or 224c (2600# 7" dia). Both are 3/8" single port, double convoluted bags. Slam Specialties has similar models (RE6; RE7).
