airbag suspension questions

ok as the end is getting near and close to me having my 82 running. im giving thoughts on whats next to do. so im thinking of a nice soft suspension with a low stance. not real low

the front of my truck does set low i have no idea what drop i didnt do it.
but the rear is standard hight

if i decided to go with bags would i have to c notch the frame ?
or is that onl to slam them low??

or could i go with some adjustable shocks

Re: airbag suspension questions

You need to determine how low you want to go and what your use will be. Up front the common set up is bags combined with lowered spindles. In the rear, you will want a C-notch to allow you to go low to match the front.

This is just a starting point, take a look at all the information thats available here and absorb it like a sponge. When your ready to move forward, let us know.
