ok air ride it is ,

but im concerned about the space in my bed

we haul bikes and all kinds of stuff and id prefer to not cut up my bed space,

so the question is how low can i go with minimal space lass?

depends...


what year truck and what tire, wheel combo?

if its a 98 style you can run teens to the frame and have a fairly small notch, put a cover on it. bam good to go.

Or go out and measure the top of your pumpkin to the bedfloor, there is your drop. then pull the front spring out and replace with a bag.

just a guess, with teens you would probably get a 8"f 10"r drop

Or you can raise the bedfloor, not nessesarily a bodydrop but at least youll have a flat bedfloor.

Or ditch the bed all together and build a western hauler bed!

I haul crap too, like my quad, wood, etc and Mine is raised 3" all around with another 3-4 over the center section. No problems yet. I even have a foldacover bed cover on it and still have enough room to put 4 12"s and my quad with some fire wood and gas cans. Oh yeah and tow my 10000 lb camper behind it. But I am bd 3" with low pro 19's

yea i was going to mention doing a cut and lift over the whole notch itself but i would worry more bout the dually fenders i think that will limit how ffar you will go with that itre combo right now

does anyone happen to have a pic of a truck sitting at about that height im having a hardtime seeing it,, maybe bags arent the way to go
liljlowrider   +1y
yea im with low i believe that you would have to actually raise your rear fenders if you kept those wheels and tires.. could be wrong thats just by looking at the picture, i dont know the measurement of your wheel tire combo .

If you are going to bag it with the wheel/tire combo you have. I dont think you will ever get it low enough to have to loose any bed space. If you just want the bags for the low look, I would suggest getting some different (smaller overall diameter) wheels/tires. But if you are wanting bags for the hauling help, then you could just bag the back so that the tires set just inside the fenderwells. You could do the same with the front.
