Exactly... the airbags don't "lift" the vehicle, they merely push on the outside coils to stop compression of the spring when under a load.
I spent 85 bucks on a set of firestone bags from Summit and they work GREAT!
I ran two separate lines because that's what it came with but I'm going to get a "T" and put them together.
Just got my truck back from replacing an oil pan gasket, I'll post pics when I get to work Monday.
