What about airlift bags????? I swear by them they dont expand outwards they just lift and I installed some slams on a truck last summer they streach alot they have some good lift. I like both.

I just replaced a set of airlifts for someone who had them on for a yr, the cords in the middle were breaking through the rubber. this was in the front of the truck. there are so many stories of them pulling apart for no reason its rediculous.

i swear on Slam bags.

firestone 2500 wont lift your truck any less then a slam RE 7 will. Everyone bag will max the front suspension out on an s10, its just the matter of at what PSI. Airlift 2b6's takes around 130-135 psi to max it out. Same with a stone 2500.
