I am a little concerned that my crossmember is a little low...I think my install is similar to yours, how much clearance are you going to have at ride height?
Sorry it took a bit to get back with you. I have Air Ride's shockwave bags up front. With the bag full I have about 5 inchs of clearance from the crossmeber and when they are empty I have about 1.5 inchs of clearance. If you have stock springs and spindle you should have about 8 inches of clearance. I had two inch dropped coils at first but it was'nt low enough for me.
