72' Chevy question

[Mrwlliam]

Ive seen a few pics in my search yieldings, but my question isnt awnsered yet...

Can i simply add a notch and bag on the stock rear links and sit low.. Im not totaly beat up on laying out yet.. Just want to lay low for now.. Any input?

And I think the front is just a simple bolt on setup.. from S/D maybe?

Thanks Guys,

Will

Bump For lack of input..haha..

heres a quick shot of mine without the notch...adds a lot of drop..and def fun to play with

[mycool72]

Yes, you can run the stock 2-link like I'm doing with a SD notch....adding blocks will give more drop if needed. Let me see if I can dig up a photo of mine on the two link without the notch....also keep in mind there are TONS of options on bagging, its all about preference and style..this site has a ton of info...so look around

[Mrwlliam]

wow, great..Thanks .. Are those airlift bags?

to the board

You should check out the Texas CGITC in my sig

IMO, you dont gain much from a bolt in notch & you will have to cut a hole in your bed floor for the pumpkin to poke through

If I were you, I'd run some Slammed Specialties RE-6's in the rear with no notch, unless you dont mind having a hole in your bed

I dont like holes in my bed, so I didnt put in a notch when I bagged Sinister
And with Killer I did a frame Z & am raising the bed floor

Here is Sinister with no notch just bags

Ride height


Dumped


Also, blocks will only allow the axle to sit higher when the bags are at optimal height, not dump any lower

Thanks Bomb...
You mean that if i put the blocks on iit will not allow the truck to sit lower?

The only time i have used blocks was on the rear of a s10..
Thanks for the pics, and great truck!

Ps. Can you tell me about the front?

Here is a pic of how low you can get your truck without doing some form of major surgery. By major surgery I mean no Z'd frame, no step notch, no drop member, no hole cut out of the bed floor. This is a simple and easy setup using the factory trailing arms. Hope this helps.

[mycool72]

Yes, mine are airlift, I like them a lot but i'm prob gonna switch to the Slam Specialties cause they are huge and ride smooth as hell....

heres mine with c notch and standard front set up

[Mrwlliam]

Thats the standard notch? not the step(larger) notch.. That color is georgous...love the truck brotha.. and thanks for the info..

[mycool72]

If you're going to notch it, go with the step notch from SD...I think its only like 100.00, It would be a good investment, cause once you start going low, its only a matter of time before you want LOWER!!!

Way cool bro.. thats proly hat i will end up doing
