well it would be able to be welded on two sides, and would need to be boxed in, probably would be more work then its worth, compared to buying a new one

not going to be able to do a cnotch, the rear diff only sits about 1" from the bed so just going to put the air bags on it and raise it about 1/2" so it will stop bottoming out on the bump stops and call it done!!!

Here are to link to a bagged o4+ screwcab. There is no need for $2000 strut bags. Read thru the first one, and the second one just shows you pics of the front suspension. Now this is only for 22s. Maybe this will encourage you to bag the front of your truck. Its defiantly alot cheaper then $2000 hell it can be had for cheap all you really needs is a torsion bar front bag mount setup,and a shock mount,bags,and valves since you already have a tank, and compresser. And dude dont buy from aim they rip people off everyday and sell **** for parts. Try ordering from www.suicidedoors.com And if your wondering what makes me special heres my truck lol

I think that was before the bags or the bags didnt have air in them. Since that pic I have lowered it another 1" in the front and going to lower another 1" in the rear this weekend. I'll post up a pic sunday without air and with air so you can see it.

Ordered my tank and my other 1/2" valve today so should be able to go up and down a little quicker now.

Gonna try to put the shackles on tonight after my daughter goes to bed. If I do I'll get pictures tomorrow.

My wife bought a new car instead of putting tires on hers so now I'm searching for some rims.

New cars are always better than new tires.

what size tank? and what brand are you running for valves. Some of the best valves on the market are the cheapest. ASCO

yeah they are defiantly cheap just be careful what you buy from them. They will tell you oh yeah we have a strut bag or a bag kit that will bolt right onto your truck then it gets there and it doesnt then they wont return your money because you tried to install it.

yeah, i've heard alot of bad stuff about them and wont order anything else from them. I figured these parts were cheap enough and if something goes wrong with them it wont effect the drivability.
