Default Air Lift air bags for the rear.

It's time to make this truck of mine ride a little better. I took off the Gabriel air shocks from Autozone and put back the factory shocks and felt a big difference. It rides a lot better but I know I will have a bottoming out issue. I'm thinking of buying the AIR LIFT air bags from Summit. It says for trucks lowered from 2"-7". Any body tried these? Also, What is a good shock for our trucks?

I put a set on my old mans F-350 single wheel single cab Ford diesel 4x4, It was much better at keeping its stance when towing, they didnt effect regular driving quality in any way though. But they are easily installed, only about 4.5 hours on that particular application. However they do increase the ride hight at your disposal, we opted for the type where you mount 2 valves and just hook them up to a comperssor, a cheap cigarette lighter plug in compressor does the job just fine. I mounted the valves on the rear bumper, one on each side of the lisence plate, but i've seen them installed behind the gas door. Good Luck
