Help with suspension decision...

So, I called up ECE this morning, to ask them about their center crossmember for extreme drops. I called to ask if it would fit on a 71 blazer, since it calls for pickups with one-piece drivelines. I started talking to the man(very nice, I must add) and he started telling me how "bags" aren't really everything people crack them up to be. They are nowhere as sturdy as his springs. He said that if you have a T at the front and the back, to fill the front and rear bags, when you go around a corner the air can shift between the front/rear bags. So, I am back to square one with a suspension decision. Here is what I am looking for, and maybe you guys can help me. I want to be as low as possible, but I also want a good ride. Another thing that I was contemplating was what kind of custom body work so that if I get bags, I can let all the air out. For example, what are people doing with the rear fender wells? What are they doing with the front inner fenders? I mean, I eventually want to run 20's but...if I have to cut up the body, I don't know that I want it. I am looking for a stock/custom rig. Anyways, any help from some people that have done this that could help me make my decision, would be great...

thanks in advance...

Lenny
