My buddy has a lifted 2wd.
About 6.5"-9" lift and he has air shocks in the rear. 33x12.50 with 20x12s.
He is wanting to bag the rear also, where he can adjust while towing or just driving.
From level, to bulldogged, etc.
He already has a compressor for his train horns.
Would it be easier to get some air line, valves, and fittings and connect the air shocks to the compressor. Or could he put airbags on the rear as well. Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

best bet in reality is some helper bags.

they go between the axle and the frame, and they make spacers for if you have a lift.

not going to get extreme travel like budrun, but he will get some movement when if fills or emptys them,

If he went from essentially lowered (or bulldogged if that is the word of the week) to lifted (driving height) with helper bags it would more than likely ride like poo.
 
I wasn't even referring to me. Lots of different options on how to accomplish the same outcome. Either way OPs friend will have a harsh ride when on "bulldogging".
 
I'm considering having my truck lifted 3 inches and going to a more aggressive all terrain tire. I want to have the front raised level with the rear. Anyone have an idea on a descent price from a national service store.

I see you are new on here. Not trying to being rude, but post up an intro thread and ask your question there. That way you can get answers on your specific vehicle instead of jacking another thread. You will probably get more/better responses that way.
 
I can't figure out how to post the intro. I've clicked every button can't figure it out. Any info would help.

I'm not what you'd call technically proficient

My app looks nothing like yours and I don't see forum introductions. I won't post till I figure it out. Thanks for the help
 
Definitely off topic so sorry but is that Justin Turner's truck in the first post?
 
tapatalk can be screwy, you can always just use the straight browser, which is what I prefer. I will clean the thread up once he gets it all figured out, thanks Dean!
 
I won't post on the thread again, so you can clean itup now if you want. Sorry.for the inconvenience
