hey guys my name is Brandon..... heres my question ,and hopefully some of you guys can help me out......i have a 2002 2WD Ford Explorer that im currently looking to get on air. The front suspension components are factory and the rear suspension setup is factory IRS and was curious as to how/what i should use???? i basically just want to get it set up on air using all other factory suspension components as well. i have talked to several people/shops and they have told me that with the IRS that i would need to Cantilever the rear to use bags? and others have told me to use air cylinders front and rear.....the EX is my daily right now and still need to maintain all the interior stuff,...so doing a frame back half or or axle swap and notch are out of the question, ...so far the most logical answers i have got was to use air cylinders on all four corners because of the rear IRS? or some sort of air-over shocks or sleeve bags? any help,pics,anything would be greatly appreciated.would love to see pics of other explorer's that are on air with the similair set-up
