If you just put a put a cup in there, I think that would help you out alot. I'm running cups top and bottom. I had to angle cut my bottom cup to work with my stock lower control arm. which you prolly won't need to do with yours.
I have to apologize to 99. He was giving me advise about the air bags and I was wrong on a few things. First I have 2500 bags up front and 2600 in back. Also I added a lower cup on the front this week so the bag was not so extended and gave them an angle cut to level out the bottom of the bag. I also don't need as much psi to get to ride height like 20psi less. I feel much better about this setup now. Thanks to everybody's advice and knowledge I do listen to everything, I just might be stubborn sometimes. This is my first build it has been a huge learning curve. Man I can't wait till spring when this thing will be rolling down the rd.
