if i wanted to put air bags on my truck but didnt wanna lay frame cuz i dont wanna cut out the bed how low would i be able to go when they were deflated and how high when they were inflated and how much work would it b and what would i need?

well, every bag is different... i know slam specialties re7 has like 11in aired up and 2.5 aired out.

but to get the max drop, you'd wanna do a baby notch... just to the bottom of your bed.. then figure out what kinda system you wanna run. you could prolly do a dual setup, but the bags would act more as helper bags... but i don't think they're rated the same as helper bags

you have a gen III right, well front w/o cutting fenders, and with 27.7" tires, crossmember will be about 3" from touching ground. but 24"ish will lay crossmember with minor modification.
at front lockup with 150 PSI and RE-7's i wanna say has a 9" tire/fender gap. 200 PSI from what i remember causes upper arm to hit frame
rear idk cuz i have yet to look into it.
