Our rear kit uses a ContiTech double convoluted 2400# airbag mounted on custom perches that DO NOT require cutting the spring mount off your frame rail! You will need to drill 4 holes per side to mount the upper perch, but your stock spring can be reinstalled within an hour if you needed to. I know the pictures aren't the best, but here's the bag and brackets:
There is enough lift in the front to ALMOST put the front valance on the ground- yeah, it's not necessary, but it looks really cool! And if you don't want to lift it that much, you don't have to!

People need to know what they are talking about before they speak.
Assuption is the mother of all f______!
I can attest to Phil and the FBI kit.As I was one of the first with his kit.If not the 1st.
I love the kit and have been really happy with it as well as Phil's knowledge and expert advice.
The only thing I have an issue about,is that its to damn fast!How many people with bags have you heard complain about it being to fast?I didnt want speed.Only adjustable suspension.
I have since slowed it down.Thats the thing with air,you have a lot of different approaches and adjustability to tune the kit to your liking.
When you want to know something about a company's kit,ask someone who has experience with the kit.I do all of my own work.The kit and cups that FBI uses are quality stuff.As he said,you can go back to stock in a matter if minutes on the rear.
I have been really satisfied on my stuff from FBI.

what did u have to do to the front, i noticed u said u can convert the rear back to stock but not the front, thats cool with me though iwouldnt mess with that..... but what did u do, and did you have rubbing issues, i have 18 by 7.5" rims with 215/35 tires, they are slim, i think would work, but did u have to rol lthe fender s or suttin like that..............ooo and how much did u score the fbi kit for......at the moment im leaning to that.................what is wrong with a fast kit, except if its too fast, the bags rip off the mounts, my buddy has a balck s10 nitrogen filled bags went to lift up on the highway ripped off his right rear bag and drown 15 miles with no suspesnion on that side........lol sucked but im sure it isnt that fast.................. hearing good things aobut that kit though
