EZair ride kit on the way excited as hell

I finally pulled the trigger today and went with an upgrade to my suspension
I currently have HOTCHKIS 4/6 drop springs with beltech street performance shocks, cPP front and rear sway bars, and pan hard bar.
Spent a lot of time and this combo rides very bouncy not really my thing.
The owner of EZ Air Ride sells a very nice looking kit that doesn't require any medication to frame or suspension.
He talked with me for about 50 min and now I am awaiting the Kit

Do you have any suspension pics of your current set up?
Just trying to figure out why it was bouncy?
The addition of bags won't help if the shocks aren't working.

Did you have drop spindles also?
What year truck?

shocks where new so I am not sure why it rode like it did
maybe with drop and 20/22 wheels it effected the ride
all the guys I know with bagged trucks swear by performance and ride quality
so i pulled trigger

Re: EZair ride kit on the way excited as hell

OK,... I see you have a 67-72 truck.
Did you use rear shock relocators?
Did you eliminate the bump stops and brackets for extra clearance?
Did you relocate the upper front shock bracket or just use a shorter shock?

I bagged my 2wd blazer after running it at a 4.5/6 drop for a few years.
But it rode great as a static dropped truck.
