Welcome! Usually that dropped look is not for me, but your truck looks really nice.

The truck has Porterbuilt tubular control arms , 4 link, HD sway bar, air ride, Accuair E-level, KYB shocks, 4 link stabilizer bar, tubular crossmembers, Wilwood brake components, rack and pinion steering.

Heres an updated pic of the truck after I painted the center of the wheels gray, and a pic of my Riviera, it also has air ride and Accuair on it

Love the truck. I'm a sucker for a slammed Riv' too. One day I'll have one.

I have a '72 Burb with Porterbuilt's Stage 1 -- didn't want to lose my rear seat and go for the full slam. I'm assuming you like the Accuair system since you have it on both vehicles. I'm really wanting to go that route at some point.
