Hey man its real easy. Take out your springs in the front and rear. Buy or make some cups to mount in the front spring locations. Then buy you some air bags 4 to be exact, moun them in front in between a-arms and cups. Depending on how you are wanting to mount the rear I mounted mine on my rear trailing arms in the stock spring locations. Then you just need to buy airline and fittings and a compressor and a tank, oh and also some valves. I mounted my tank between my rear frame rails and the compressor on the side of the rear rails then you just have to run your airlines to all the bags and get a couple of switches to controll it and you are good to go. Also some people run a pressure switch on there tanks so they can control when the compressor kicks on to fill the tank. Any thing else let me know.

Re: Let see some bagged and body dropped 69-72's

what would it cost to buy everything you need to just air the truck up with your shop compressor(and as time $ permits buy the compressor etc)

i wanna be able to lower, and then go back up higher if i need to haul something do most folks go with a c notch also?

Re: Let see some bagged and body dropped 69-72's

Is there any safety concerns with bags? Does anyone run bagged trucks on the strip?

Only if they are not installed properly. An air suspension is as reliable as the installation. If it rubs it will fail.
