I plan on bagging my truck finally within the next few weeks. I have everything picked out for the front, but am not sure how I should do the rear. I dont want to lay frame or notch or none of that, I just want air. What kit/brackets should I get for the rear? I think what I need to so is finish lowering the truck the 6" total in the rear and with air ride back there it would just raise it....right? Anyone who knows more about this let me know what I should do.

well, i guess for what u want to do, it'd be just like u said. just lower it to the frame (AROUND 6.5"; if you leave in the stock bumpstops, it'll only be about 5", maybe less). Just buy some 4" or 5" drop hangers and 2" or 3" blocks.
Then get 2 2600 bags, and some "over-the-axle" bag brackets. They'll mount the bottom of the bags onto the axle, and the top of the bags to a plate on the side of the frame. look at my pictures at the link at the bottom. With this setup, you'll only go about a half-inch lower than I am in back.(but that's if u take out the stock bumpstops in back; if u dont, you'll be about an inch higher!) good luck. Peace
