Air Bags with a 3 inch lift?

I've got a 99 xj with a 3 inch Old Man Emu lift and I want to add air bags to the front. Has anyone done something like this? Is there a problem with adding air bags to a lifted vehicle? Got a snow plow on it and want to firm it up.
Thanks,

i had an airbag system on my old jeep, from autozone for like 150
it also had a 2" lift with 30" tires

i was using it to deliver news papers, so i needed a way to keep the back end from sagging, you'd be surprised how much newspapers weigh lol

I added the bags in the back, so i cant say on what it will do up front, but i can say is it added nice ride quality and kept the height really nice
