Building them. Most of the notches out there for sale are eight pieces which means you have to weld them together. It was just easier for me to buy some rectangular tubing and make my own.

How much lift you get? Do your arms/links flex at all with the bags not being center on the arms/links? Mine did.

with the bumper on measuring from the ground to the bottom of the bumper with about 85 psi i get around 24 in of lift,thats from bumper on the ground. They don't flex at all i renforced them on the insides with gussets

Mine did not flex the whole arm rolled like. Looks good! Watch out once you put weight on the frame and double check the mounts.

I will have to watch out for that, Did you do anything to fix it or just live with it.

Pulled the bags off and switched them out to F9000 in stock location. My top bag mount is in my c-notch.

How bad did they twist. And where you running poly bushings? A few friends of mine ran a simular setup on s10s with no problem but i know their lighter, I had a taco that laid on 19s with the bags on the axle but i wasnt happy with the lift thats why im tryn this. Thanks for looking out, once i get the cab and the bed on i'll have to see what happens

I have brand new poly bushings. My bags were mounted haft on the arm and haft off. The links when air was in the bags you could work the suspension and watch them the whole link roll like. Just watch them. You might be in good shape if most of the bag is on the link. If it does move you can move the bag to be centered on the link. and make a new upper bracket.
