Question:
Hi I have a lowered 08 f150. I was wondering if this kit would still fit on my vehicle with it being lowered?

Hey Alex!
I've looked all over the Pacbrake website and reached out to my contact with them (haven't heard back yet), and I'm not seeing anything that positively identifies the Pacbrake Alpha HD Air Bag Suspension Kit # PB72RV as fitting a lowered truck. Typically, air bag systems are designed for stock height and lifted trucks (when used with spacers) so I'd be surprised if this will work.
Thankfully, we have the Air Lift SlamAir Air Helper Springs # AL59210 which are designed specifically for lowered trucks, so I recommend going that route instead.
It would also help to have a compressor kit like the Air Lift WirelessONE # AL25980 for monitoring and adjusting the air bags on the fly.
I'm intrigued about your setup - what is your reason for having a lowered truck, and what do you hope to accomplish with an air bag kit?
