---------------------------------------------Originally posted by Pazz88mazdaOk i have tried to find published info but im not able to find anything like im thinking you need    A Static drop is most basic suspension in the minitruck world. This suspension drop is usually is in between 2/5 inches front and 3/7 in the rear    most rear drops consist of a Block that is placed in between the leaf spring and the axle.  Or on some trucks you need  a Flip kit witch will take   the axle from underneath the leafspring and put it on top of the leaf. there is also some suspensions that require you use a different hanger    that the leaf connects to.  .. there is many deferent ways to a static drop depending on the truck your working with.    The most common suspension that we are seeing right now is an Airbag suspension    There is allot of different ways to bag your ride.! A basic bagged suspension will be a bag over axle in the rear with bolt in cups for the front.   For most air setups there is a compressor thats fills a air tank to 125/200 P.S.I. after the air tank there is a solenoid valve that was used for   irrigation witch opens momentarily to let the air run through a air line to the bag that inflates to lift the suspension.      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  ok im missing alot but im trying..lol im going to try to find some info that has been published from a repatible source        --------------------------------------------- thanks man i know theres no source but im defienetly gonna put that in my paper.oh by the way all my sources and facts are due monday and then we have to start writing the paper with our sources and facts (yea i know short notice as fuck but thats what they do to you in school they dont care bout it its not there problem)
