bag brackets?

ok i read through past post and everyone seems to be doing somthing different. for the front: two flat pieces of steel, one flat/one cup (which goes on top?). i believe this may depend on personal prefference. two flat pieces seems easiest, but may fully compress your bag and keep the truck from going lower. this may not be true. but if i were to run a cup, how tall should it be and what angle should be cut on bottom? i am going to be running slam specialties es-82's all the way around. the widest diamter this big achieves at any height is 7.75". this bag gives lots of lift, which i need since the truck is being bodydropped 3".

now for the rear. some say mount them in the stock spring spot. but this spot looks like it will not provide much lift. if you built brackets and mounted them on the frame and tariling arm further up you would achieve alot more lift, correct?

also, can you get trailing arm bushings at a local auto parts store or do you have to order them from a 67-72 specific company?
