Re: air bags
What are you goals with airbags? If you want to ride it low when aired up, you have to lower it some sort of way.

Re: air bags
so to get the slammed look with the bags inflated u'd still do the normal things such as drop spindles and shackle kits

Re: air bags
Yes that is correct. Airbags don't "lower" a truck, you are limited by the way you mount them, You can get about 3" of drop out of them, but that is about it by just installing airbags. If you want it low, you have to lower it some way. Airbags only lower it when they are deflated, and you can't drive it like that...
