I’m thinking of baggin my 67. I’ve read several post on this subject, some of which are much more extreme drops than what I have in mind. I want to drop it to achieve the stance that these two trucks have.
I don’t want to cut the bed, but I want to be able to get the diff as close as possible. I’ll block the back if needed to fine tune ride height. My plan is Slam Specialties RE7s front and back with suicidedoors plates on the front. Here is where the questions begin.
Front
1.) Some have talked about cutting the bottom cups down to about ¾”. Do I need to do this to get the above stance at driving height?
2.) I had already ordered my spindles, springs and shocks for a 4/6 from ECE, will the shocks that came with that setup work with the bags?
Rear
1.) Keep in mind I don’t want to cut through the bed floor, will I need to do a small C-notch?
2.) Will I have issues with the driveshaft and the trailing arm crossmember?
3.) Pinion angle issues?
I haven’t decided on a Air Management system yet, I really like the Air Ride Tech Digital system, but it’s way expensive. I could probablly do the whole suspension twice for what they want for the air system alone. So I’m still taking suggestions. I could probablly just put some schraeder valves on there and air the bags up with my garage compressor while I’m building the chassis.
Thanks for any comments
