Re: air bag drop
With or without lowering components? Depends on how high you set it up, and what kind of bag you use. Figure about 4" with no air in it....

Re: air bag drop
Depends on the cups you use. Keep the details coming.

Re: air bag drop
Now you are asking the right questions and giving the right info. Don't waste your time on the crossmember if you plan to z the frame, just Z it 4" and chop off 2.5" off the frame at the rocker to get it level with the rocker and be done.
