rear bag bracket question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

808_67C10 · 03-17-2012, 01:25 PM

I have a 67 C10 with trailing arms. I plan to put in a c-notch (not the tall one, the bolt/weld in one that just goes up into the frame) then bag it. My question is: what are the best brackets/location to use? I am not trying to lay frame, just wanna get as low as possible and have a decent ride. Any advice on location and bracket set up will be helpfull!

Roll Chevy!

Check our Vendor Marketplace. Several of our Forum Sponsors offer a small bolt in notch that will fit your needs.

Looking for bag mounting bracket suggestions... I have seen em bolted in the same posit as da springs and off to the side with brackets. Not sure which is better or what exact brackets I need to make it happen.

Sorry, Da vender marketplace isn't very user friendly IMO

Just mount the bag between the frame and the trailing arm.
No brackets required.

If you just replace the coil springs with bags it will get it pretty low with that small notch.

on my previous setup I had my bags mounted where the coil springs used to be.I used slam specialties bags(built in bump stop).with the notch you're going to use and a slam specialties bag,with the bags deflated the axle will be about 1/8-1/4 inch from the notch.
