Default springs

2011 150. Does anyone make a set of softer springs for a better ride?

Do you know of any helper bag kits for a 8 inch rear drop? Also I have a notch from airbagit.com

I have the Airlift #59210 on my truck with a flip kit.

No C-notch, but it's an universal kit. and pretty sure you'll be able to mount it on your truck.

I installed it last spring, and totally forget to take picture

You can easily find the spec : it's something like : 2,5" compressed and 8" extended.
So if you have 8-10" between your leaf pack and top of the frame rail, it's gonna fit.

it's not mine but pretty much the same:

The bag goes behind the axle as per the instruction, but can be put in the front too.(like shown here)
The top bracket can be used upside down for the non dropped truck

1) what year truck? 2008 SCREW
2) 2wd or 4wd? 2wd
3) how low do you want to go? low enough to fit 24's and tow a 22' boat
4) budget you want to be in? Sub $1k
5) belltech or djm item or both doesn't matter. whatever handles and rides best

Also need info on pinion angle etc. Also how to purchase from you. Didn't see the right kit on your site.
