lift question

ok guys call me dumb call me stupid flame the hell outta me but.... i'v always said i want my ranger to be a show truck...and well..instead of messing with upper control arms and all that BS why don't i put bags on it.... i was thinking of doing this anyway for towing cause i have been towing alot of stuff at work.. small 12" 16 foot trailers but anyway...what all would i need to do to get...be some bags on this puppy.....and say keep how much lift i have right now and try to go 4 or 5 inch's higher when the bags are fullly in flated......i'm just throwing ideas around...on what next to do to my ranger cause i'v always wanted to go higher but think i could probally get a better ride quality with bags...plus get to play with switch's any ideas? thoughts or places to look for ideas?

i had the same idea......only no towing.....purely for show....and maybe offroading clearance issues. i was going to put 3" spindles on, and a aal in the back, and then bag it all around, with the tank and compressor under my tool box. with a couple hits of the switch, have like 10" of lift, or drop it down to just 3. xtreme4x4 on spike did somethin like that to a dodge and i thought it would be, well, badass.
