Has anyone lowered there 94-97 dually? Im thinking about lowering mine from 14 inches (ground effects behind the front tire) down to 8 inches, and the same with the rear, it will still have the usual rake.. I know the rear will have to get a 5 link with air bags since there is no room to do the SUA idea.. Any thoughts if the airbags will hold up to the trailer and the jeep that I cart around every now and then, heres the truck and trailer

go for it, I have been tempted for years to do a drag bottom,
this place pokie here
has an excellent system, seen it in real life and its freaking fantiastic, all four wheels air bags,
little $$ but i think its worth it.
your truck looks good now, but lowered is sweet as well
I rode in a dually with all four corners and it was like a lincoln smooth and in control. :D

im all for lowering a dually.honestly ithink duallies are the only thing that looks good lowered but it has to be a crew cab.cant stand the look of a regular or extended cab dually.but his looks mean the way it is.id leave it alone.
