Drop crossmembers without airbags

Can Porterbuilt dropmembers, front and rear, be used without airbags? I would like a static drop with coilovers instead of air. How low can I expect to go (reasonably) with a static drop?

I would PM Porterbuilt himself.
I believe he is developing a new coil over version of the Dropmember.

I believe Scott's Hot Rods makes a kit with coil-overs.

Yes Nathan has a front and rear drop member kit that uses coil overs as I have enquired for myself already. I have viewed the pictures of it and it's nice.
