    Still working on getting the title in hand... god i want to start working on this...

    Meanwhile i am sitting here thinking about suspension and what i want to run...

    So a big question i find me asking myself is, "Do i want to run Air Ride suspension?" Why would i not want to run an air ride suspension? It is cool as hell and i am sure the "performance" doesnt stand up to coil-overs, but i am also not going to be taking this to road courses either.
    My second note of discussion with myself is that i know i am going four link. But what kind of four link should i run? Ladder bar? Triangulated? I really want to keep my bed as functional as possible. I am not looking to drop my truck to the ground with this either. Any input would be helpful.
    1) air ride yes or no
    a) if no, why?
    2) rear suspension: what type of fourlink would work best for an air ride system while keeping the truck bed functional?

    (as of right now i am thinking about doing an air ride setup until i am convinced otherwise)
