I might be getting a truck and its on air ride suspension, Im wondering if this would be really bad for towing say 3500lbs and below.Does anyone tow thier car with a truck on bags? any opinions would be great..

Most people who use their bagged truck to tow run 18wheeler bags in the rear to help with the load, but im sure there are heavy load bags made specifically for it also and ya people do it all the time. just make sure its equipped with the correct setup.

sorry last night i was tried when i posted but it has a c notched frame so you can lay it down on the rail its a 1500 GMC crew cab with full sized bed..im worrie about the c notched frame the most..while hard braking (if i ever had to) and on acceleration would the frame twist itself apart? but then again mikes is most likely c notched as well

I am sure that if you notch the frame and get it reinforced you will be fine. Its not like you should cut the frame and leave it open, you should tig a plate onto it and close it up. Then in addition maybe run a triangular brace from the tow mounting point but hey, what do I know, I've never done this.
