Default Saving up for bags...

yes ladies and gentle men i said bags as in air bags. I want to get air ride for my truck but its a different type of system. It only costs 384$ to do the rear and what it is is it only raises the vehicle 4" from the height it is currently at. So what I am going to do it get 4" drop blocks, put the bags on over that. That way the bags fully inflated is stock height and deflated it drops 4". And it has a reg aircompressor and everything. Its supposed to be for towing but people at the explorer forums use this method as a really cheap way to get bagged. I got about 200$ saved up anyone wanna donate!

I would lower the front of a vehicle before the rear, just my opinion.

i'm debating whether i want to bag my frontier... i really hate seeing those trucks that are dropped to the ground and scrape their bumpers on the road shooting up sparks and shit... but i do like the general idea behind airbags.

Yeah that would be a little much. Plus if it's not 4wheel drive a lift is kinda pointless anyway...

Since when have trucks been known for hair-pin cornering anyways? I can see lowering a car..better handling, improved aero-dynamics, but on a truck it's kinda pointless...all show. Now jacking up a truck is beneficial in the overall implied performance of which a truck is meant for...utility. Improved ground clearance, suspension flexability and tire clearance. To each his own.
