Expert Reply:
The only air spring kit we have available that is designed to work well with lowered trucks is the Air Lift SlamAir # AL59209. This particular kit is designed for trucks with 2 to 6 inches of drop from the factory height like what you are looking at and will do a nice job of enhancing the rear suspension and preventing bottoming out. They have a 2,000 pound load-leveling capacity and all the needed hardware for installation is included.
