    Alright so I bought a 92 Pickup bagged. The people who did it did a hack job: monoleaf in back with shocks intact, shaft hitting crossmember and the front has bags with shocks some shock towers tact in. The frame was left untouched no c-notch or step notch or anything. Is it possible to just make it static and elliminate the air suspension??:looney: Help will definintely be appreciated:)

    its IS possible, especially if they didnt get to chopping anything too much. take some shots of what you got to work with. the rear chances are you can toss in some drop leafs and some 2" blocks and be ok. front you'll need to crank the torsions back into place (if theyre still there)

    Wow it is not even notched or anything. I am sure if you remove the bags and put a stock leaf back on you would be back to static. i am curious if the torsion bars were completely removed in the front. I am not an expert so we will have to see what others have to say

    Looks like you will want to find some rear leaf springs and torsion bars to put them back in. And it kinda looks like the front shocks will still bolt into place. Can't really tell from the pic.

    If someone was literaly trying to bag it as a mini they are very DUMB, however I got a slight feeling he may have been going the direction of load help or maybe bought it that way and decided to do the front??? Rear looks like a helper setup to me. Front yah thats just weird. HOWEVER since everything is already there you might as well finish the bag work simple notch and bridge out back and redo the front notch your cab and get a 4 link.
