HI,

I have a 72 chevy truck LWB with 2.5 drop spindles in the front and 4" drop springs in the rear w/ drop shocks. I am currently running 265-65-15's on the front and 295-50-15's on the rear and my truck set level. I have just invested in some 18x8" w/ 255-55-18 tires for the front & 20x9" w/ 285-50-20's for the rear. the diference is 2" overall from the front to back tire sizing. I want to suck up the front fender gap. and devolop the 2" rake from front to back. I prefer to not bag the front at this time.

The qustion is what is rear ride height with the rear cool ride system and will it be simular to my current 4" rear drop spring? and could I run this system without a tank and compressor for now?

The ride height will be about the same. We can just install a schrader valve and inflate it manually. If you want a lower ride height you would also have to add a lowering block and a C-notch.

Is there a diagram of this type of setup? Also when cornering on the highway does the air load tranfer from bag to bag if so how would you correct this?

It's just an airline that plugs into the air spring and then we put a schrader valve on the other end. It's just like airing up your tires.

Is there any way to isolat the air in each bag to keep the load from tranfering from bag to bag when taking a corner?

It will have two valves, one for each bag.
