Air bag Suspension

I was wondering if anyone knew any vendors who sold Air bag kits for a 71 Chevy Fleet. That came w/all the brackets and lines and stuff like that. I am just thinking about converting to air bags. Also, would there be a difference if you also got the front lowering spindles w/ the airbags? Thanks everyone!

Can someone please explain exactly what 4-way air bag suspension is. I mean w/ this, can you adjust each bag individually or what? Thanks

yea a 4 way system has a selanoid at each bag so there seperate from each other. this system is preffered becuase you dont have to worry about air transfer between bags when making corners.

does anyone know of some good manual valves to use? I would eventually like to go to a setup like this with 4 manual valves. A lot cheaper than the solenoids and they flow more too. I was thinking maybe something from the trucking industry, just has to be a 3 way valve.
