Does anybody have any experiances with the airbags that fit inside the front coil springs on a Ford truck with Twin I Beam? My 74 F350 car hauler always wears out the inside shoulders of the front tires. With the car on the back, and the storage boxes full, the trucks frontend normally drops down about 2"`s. I was hoping that these airbags may help keep the tires more perpindicular, so the tires wear more evenly.

I had a set on a '79 F150 a long time ago. I had clearance issues with 32" tires on a stock suspension,and the bags took care of it. The ride wasn't bad either.
