Ok here's my question.
Can you remove the factory air shocks, replace with standard shocks and use the factory comp. to run tbss bags?
Are the air lines the same size?
Can you trick the sensors to keep the truck lower and what kinda drop can be expected by doing this if possible.
Sum up, remove factory air shocks and springs, replace with standard shocks and tbss rear bags..
Thanks for any help.

65 shipped. I'd just shoot you a custom paypal bill.

Just heads up I had a guy break output shaft over weekend. Had bagged tbss set up and I told him to do arms since driveshaft pushes farther into trans which yiu can see how front tires get sucked forward. He dropped back at a show and went to move it forward and heard pop and rev. Turns out over time of it being so low was pushing ds into trans and finally busted it. Tell your buddy to do arms in rear when he can.
