I suppose you mean air bags as in suspension? if so, what's your goal w/ the bagged suspension?

if you meant air bag as in the safety device, a Ford dealership can help you out.

:thumbsup:

Ya needacobra , air bag suspension.

I got air bags for safety, but im thinking about installing curtaing air bags.... but naw....

Well i just want air bags for the loook and stance of the truck when its lowerd, and ive heard that air bag suspension is alot more comfortable then stock suspension.

but ya im goin mainly for the lowerd stance, and the ability to lower and raise it at the touch of a button.

Well, I'm sure you could find a shop around your area that installs them. However, if I were you, I'd just get some drop schackles, or something. Ask Lightning Larry what his suspension is, and copy it! His truck has a very nice stance. There are several "bagged" S10s, Rangers, etc. around here, and they just get on my nerves, honestly. I'd spend your money on something better than bagged suspension, but that's just my opinion ;-)

If I were you, I'd go to www.f150online.com and ask the question. You'd be able to get a lot more help since that site is geared toward F150s, also you won't have to worry about certain people trolling your threads

 

[NeedaCobra]

oh, and one more thing, there are several ways to lower a truck, so you'll have to decide which way is best for you

TROLL
troll v.,n. 1. [From the Usenet group alt.folklore.urban] To utter a posting on Usenet designed to attract predictable responses or flames; or, the post itself. Derives from the phrase "trolling for newbies" which in turn comes from mainstream "trolling", a style of fishing in which one trails bait through a likely spot hoping for a bite. The well-constructed troll is a post that induces lots of newbies and flamers to make themselves look even more clueless than they already do, while subtly conveying to the more savvy and experienced that it is in fact a deliberate troll. If you don't fall for the joke, you get to be in on it. See also YHBT. 2. An individual who chronically trolls in sense 1; regularly posts specious arguments, flames or personal attacks to a newsgroup, discussion list, or in email for no other purpose than to annoy someone or disrupt a discussion. Trolls are recognizable by the fact that the have no real interest in learning about the topic at hand - they simply want to utter flame bait. Like the ugly creatures they are named after, they exhibit no redeeming characteristics, and as such, they are recognized as a lower form of life on the net, as in, "Oh, ignore him, he's just a troll." 3. [Berkeley] Computer lab monitor. A popular campus job for CS students. Duties include helping newbies and ensuring that lab policies are followed. Probably so-called because it involves lurking in dark cavelike corners.
Some people claim that the troll (sense 1) is properly a narrower category than flame bait, that a troll is categorized by containing some assertion that is wrong but not overtly controversial. See also Troll-O-Meter.

The use of `troll' in either sense is a live metaphor that readily produces elaborations and combining forms. For example, one not infrequently sees the warning "Do not feed the troll" as part of a followup to troll postings.

Its not too hard to do yourself. Buy the stuff then start CUTTING. Oh if you want it to lay frame then it would be better to get professionally done.

The best place in town is ALWAYS your own garage. No matter how big the project... you have to learn somewhere... and in many cases, my family is doing well enough that if I mess up something, it can be towed.
