If you want to use your coils you going to mod it with a bag plate/bracket. A lot of welding and cutting shiet. Best option is to just buy a kit that's pre assembled in the struts. That kit Fred is offering is decent but I would beef up the lines to at least a 3/8 IMO. Always buy extra bags as well they always bust depending how much you air up and down. I've had 3 bagged trucks before and brackets and bags always go out no matter how expensive shiet is. On my yota I went through at least 5 air bags in a year and those were re7s best bags in the market for mini trucks at least. If yinz guys are about ride comfort don't get bags it's not a very comfortable ride. If the car is your daily don't bag save the headaches and the money. Just offering my .02 here seeing everyone wants to do it cause it looks cool, there's a lot more that goes into it that most people don't know.

Air cups are not my thing honestly. The concept is dope as shiet but too fu<king expensive an not really worth it IMO. I've never heard bags being functional lol that's a first but yea I didn't mean to poke at anyone with the cool statement I just hear it a lot these days when people ask me if my car is on air and they tell me they are going to bag cause it's so cool. I just tell them cool story and drive away lmao
