yea i have a 3.0 but i was lookin at so air bag suspention parts and it wouldnt be hard to do it in the rear...id just leave the front the same height and set the bags to ride level when they are inflated the i can drop it to the frame. doin that would almost be the same amount of money as doin headers and a chip and a programmer, but idk yet im still thinkin about it

it would look dumb with the *** aired all the way out and the front stock height haha

Your looking at a 1200+ to do the rear the right way and Im hoping your planning on welding in an 8 inchstep notch.

Talk about rolling cali style with the front stock height haha

There's a guy on base with a bagged edge and when he drops it it basically looks like a 4/5 drop. I'd say just leave it stock and put your money into something else. Like **** or a stripper, or alcohol or something.
