ok thanks, I just wanted to know what buying the cheap stuff on ebay will get me. anyways. whats easier and less expensive smaller or larger wheels ? Ill be happy with a set of 17 or 18s since they will probably be cheaper. I dont need all the bells and whistles now. Id rather buy cheaper useable parts now and upgrade later.
also the links fade listed what will that get me. I know I need bags tank and compressor but what all do I need to perform the drop ? thanks

That first link you posted was for an AIM Industries rear link kit. I'm not going to go into why you shouldn't buy that, because you can spend hours on the web getting other peoples' opinions about AIM, Chassis Tech, AirRidePro, Godmothers... whatever they're calling themselves this week...The other problem with that kit is that it's only the rear end assembly. You still need tanks, compressors, valves, front bags & brackets, lines, fittings, wiring, switches...You can get name brand, high quality components for the same price as the knock-offs on ebay, and you'll be WAY happier with your truck when it's done.Like others on here have said, count on around $1200-1300 for a basic setup, and close to $2k with all of the fancy bells and whistles (bigger compressors, more tanks, etc.).As for the amount of work, it will depend on what size wheel you plan to run, and whether or not you have to have your truck FLAT on the ground.Keep looking around in forums like this one, and you'll find a lot of information.Good luck!

FBI puttin down AIM....or whatever they call themselves....
on another note i live over in deltona straight across from ya, dont know if you could get it bagged in a month, you dont seem to know alot, no offense. as for the price range it all depends on how "nice" of a setup you want. i could do it for ya but we would have to chat about the price range.
