Can you lay frame with the air bar setup

[air ride 847]

I have the air bar on my 98 s 10 now and i wanted to know if i could keep that and notch the frame down the road

It' s close! A matter of an inch with 26" tires. I run 18' s so you could do it on a smaller tire no problem, but it' d be hard on 20" rims without cutting through the box and modifying the AirBar quite a bit! I put on a Chasis Tech 2" notch and needed to put in 2" drop blocks to keep the stock setup on the AirBar working right with the shocks. Otherwise you' d bottom out the shocks before dropping the whole way down and blow the tabs off like many have done on here. I now can ride laid out and have yet to damage anything and my diff bracket sits 1/8" away from my box. On the ZQ8 package you will need to trim one of the box braces to have the third hop shock mount to clear it if you don' t cut the bracket off. Alot easier and better than cutting the bracket off if you ask me! Other than that, my front end has the front tire sitting within 1/2" from the front fender, so I can' t go much lower anyhow without pulling the front liners. The Roadgrater is the way to go to fully lay frame, on 18' s or 20' s, but I see it useless unless you pull the front fenders, otherwise the AirBar with a 2" c-notch still lowers the back about an inch lower then the front for a level laid out stance instead of having the rear laying frame and not the front.

you can lay frame but if memory serves me correct you' ll have to mod the clamshell bracket because it hits. I' ll have to do a little more research and maybe find some pics. I' ll post back with some tire sizes and bolt in notch sizes.
