Airbag question

I'm looking for a way to drop the height of my 99 F350 to get it into the garage with the Fleetwood truck camper in the bed.

1. Go back to 265 series from 285 tires to go down an inch or so.

AND

2. Get some airbags and air down to go through the threshhold.

So.... Do adding airbags allow me to drop down lower than stock for a minute or two and do you think I could get 4 inches out of it?

Sam -

Deflated air bags won't let it settle farther than it does now, unless you modify the suspension lower than stock and use the bags to bring it back to normal (not sure this is a good idea).

You could put a full rear air suspension with the kneeling option on it.
