Can I run air bags?

Hey guy's, It's been a while since my last post (sold my old s10). My new ride is a 53' GMC running on an 88 s10 2wd, 2.8 frame. The only thing I've done is 2" blocks in the rear. I'd like to run some bags but I'm not sure what set up I could run. I'd like to be able to drop it front and rear about 3" and be able to get back up to where it sits now. Does anyone make stock height cups for the front? What or how would I do the rear? Any help would be highly appreachiated.

cups are cups. you would bag it just the same way all the s10 guys do. the only difference is you have some much cooler sheetmetal mounted around them.

Re: Can I run air bags?

Thanks for the input guys. I was worried I couldn't bag it. The body was blasted down to bare sheet then given a faux patina to look old and worn. all chrome is beat and rusty just the way we liked it. Thanks again for the help.
