You need all the stuff a good static drop needs except air bags in the place of coil spring.
Quality drop shocks, shock relocaters, an adjustable track bar, drop spindles and lowering blocks to help keep the ride height low, etc.
You can however save some money by running a manual valve system to air up the bags.
But you need to control all the bags individually.
A good sway bar up front helps a lot too. You


i saw your post in a different thread...

this is the info that i have come up with from reading other posts and talking to some buddies... Can anyone confirm this info please?

- The rears i can run a bag instead of my spring, with a bolt in c notch ( and i believe you had a 2" drop block in the rear also)

- Fronts I can run bag plates to mount the fronts.

Compressors, air tank, and manual switches and i can have my truck bagged? I posted originally I was looking for a budget air ride. I guess im just looking for a simple set up, not looking to be body dropped. but be able to drop it when i park etc. If I went with this set up how low could I expect to get?
