sway bar, shock mounts on cupped lower arms?
 

Hey hows it going just had some questions on guys running cupped lower arms. I've noticed the shock mounts and sway bar mounting holes are canceled in a lot of pics. Do you guys run sway bars? And where do you locate the lower shock mounts? I have a 1965 short bed but I have the whole front crossmember from a 91 burb that I'm working on to do a disc brake conversion and im trying to get it ready for bags before I bolt it on. I already fabbed up the upper bag plates just trying to get some knowledge on the lower ones before I hack them up too much and wont work. Any pics links to threads or comments would be aprreciated I can't seem to find the build threads I was stalking for so long. Thanks

Using the round pipe version will help with being able to keep the stock sway bar mounts, but if you do the rectangular version, just make sure you stay away from the sway bar holes and you'll be fine. The shock mounts should also be fine, they are on the outside.

Running a Slam bag will help vs a Dominator since the slams don't bellow out when filled.

No problem! Don't know how much you've read into them, so make sure you don't make the cup lower than the arm itself. Also, if you're running a dom bag, make sure you mock it up before you cut and weld. The diameter of the dom requires you to build the cup further towards the last shaft than the stock lca currently is.

PS, I have a set of cupped arms if you are interested in them. They won't work with doms though.
