I did the work on my rig. I did have some help from some friends, as well as my buddy donating the use of his awesome garage (complete with lift and plethora of air equipment). But by no means did it go to a shop. Here is me having some fun with one of them there welder machines... :D

P.S. I like your sig. I have seen that as a sticker on some trucks at shows and was considering using it myself.

Thats how it seems to go for me too. I had the front bagged for over a year before i did the rear. The only reason I even got it done was because I went to West Virginia about 6 weeks ago and won $1,500 on the slot machines. That was a totally unexpected surprise and got me caught up on bills enough to have some fun with the truck. Doesn't help that I have an 04 Civic that I have to pay for as well. Maybe it's time for another trip to WV and see about that paint job I need, hahaha.

oh man, you don't even know! It was my first time playin the slot machines and I didn't even know how. I spent about 10 minutes wandering around looking for a place to exchange my money into nickels so I could play. I found a machine marked "Bill changer" and put in a $20. It gave me back a $10 and 2 $5s and I was like WTF?! Then I realized I could just put the bills into the machines. So I spent $5 learning to play by just pushing bets. About 2 bets into the 2nd $5 WHAMO! Sirens started going off and it told me to see an attendant. It was pretty loud in the place so I first didnt realize my machine's siren was going off and assumed the machine was out of money. A few random people came by and said nice jackpot, etc. One lady came up and said "WOOOW, thats a nice pot and asked me how much it was. I told her I had no clue and she did some rough math and told me it was well over $1200. I almost crapped my pants! I called it quits right there, gave a $20 to everyone I was with, and left. No need to stick around after that!


Here are some pics. Also note: the ONLY reason I played that particular machine was because they were the only 2 mixed in with a group of other machines, and of the 2 machines like this, it was the only one that accepted bills. I took the pics with my cell phone.

ok i really want to bag my truck but i have a few questions.right now my 97 sonoma ext cab has a 3/4 drop on it and i just wish it were even lower.when i first put the drop on i was like **** i like the kit i put on it but now i look at it and its like wasnt my truck lower last week.and now people around this hick county i live in are startin to discover air suspension and i see a few trucks aroundhere have air now like a f150 i saw 2day.
ok now for my questions...
1.as a rough guess how much money do u think u guys have in ur air suspension??
2.are any of u using nitrogen to fill your bags or do u all stick to compressors and tanks?
i read some of the stuff on www.bagginit.com and it sounds like nitrogen has a few downsides like the limit of air the tank can hold and then it needs refilled.
3.also for the rear set up are u using a rear setup that u bought like the roadgrater or did u buy all the parts and build it yourself?
im just trying to find out about how much it is gonna cost to do this and the ways some of u are using for your setups.
thanks

well only because i opted to use air ride control arms for my 20s i'd say around 1500, all work done by me of course
most people who use nitrogen also use compressors for backup, nitrogen does not last very long, esp if youre me. id say if you wanna hit alot of switches then go with an engine driven compressor.
