My 05 cc has a 4/6 drop(belltech) with a slamair setup and wireless air. It does not bolt on, even tho many people claim airlift and belltech holes will line up.

Best setup IMO is Mcgaughy. There notch and air bag kit are meant to work and bolt together.

If you can weld, then get any kit and weld it on

I don't even know who's notch I have. It was I the truck when I got it and haven't bothered to check. But I'm pretty sure it's welded in also! That being said my slamair kit is coming in today. I'm dropped like 2/4. I don't really need the bags but want them!
If it's got to be welded that's fine! Y'all have any pics of your installs?

Thanks
