Re: Air Bags

Well in this pic my truck doesn't have airbags, but the springs are out. So on both the front and the back it is resting on the bumpstops. The front has stock height spindles, and the rear is not c-notched. The tires are 275/60/15 (28 inch OD) on all 4 corners. Hopefully this gives you an idea.

Re: Air Bags

Thanks for that guys much appreciated
Rokrin, What i meant was drop spindles, over here we call em drop stubs
does your truck have drop spindles and has the rear been modified to get it down lower ?

Re: Air Bags

I believe Rokcrln has some pretty extensive fabrication done to his truck to get it that low. I think he's Z'd and sectioned the crossmember, but I could be wrong.
