I was wondering if anybody has mounted their air bags over the axle and still kept their trailing arms. If so how does it affect your driveshaft angle? Would it be better to go with a 4 link?

Bag placement doesn't affect pinion angle...it affects ride quality more than anything.

Convoluted bags over the axle will ride like crap, too much bag and not enough weight. The only bag you should run off the axle is a sleeve bag.
