Hi I own a 84' mazda b2200 with a rotary engine. Since Im in NorthCarolina, the roads are very bumpy,uneven,and theres lots of railroad crossing that will chatter your teeth. I want an air suspension, but Im the type of guy that likes performance type handleing to accomdate my engine. Enjoy a decent ride with the capabilty to drop the truck to tuck in the wheels when parked. I really dont want to C notch the frame. Take into consideration that it will be a daily driver. I also would like to use the truck bed to haul steel or whatever for my welding business, but on the weekend drive on mainstreet low and slow. What is the lowest you can go without a c notch? Also are drop spindles, and trailing arms required? My budget is around $1500.00

Sorry we don't make anything specific for that vehicle. I have universal parts that will work tho.

If you are loading the thing up too, I would use a triangualted four bar with a set of F9100's on it. Without a notch your ride height at its lowest will be where the axle tube is a minimum of 3-3.5" off of the frame rail. Anything less than that will result in the truck bottoming out all the time.
