Hey all, thanks in advance for any help people can give me here. I bought an 07 Tahoe that was already lowered with a spindle kit and sits on 24s. In 4 years I've blown my front struts twice now, 1 rear and also had to replace my rear stock compressor already, obviously need to make a change here. Sick of playing stock parts and I want to go bags but am wondering what my best options are. I'm willing to spend some good money but with having a spindle kit already are bags my best option? Would like to replace F and R altogether with bags and don't need FBSS but would like front and back control.

In a nutshell what's my most reasonable bag option for FB control and is my spindle kit going to affect my choices and/or installation.

Thanks

Bags will be a kelderman kit. But there is no way you should be blowing struts "just because you're lowered"

please take pics of the rear shocks and also the place where rear shocks are mounted to the axle.

in front if a shop does the autoride struts wrong they wont last. Ie the shaft gets spun
