rear bags which ones?
Okay so here's the run down s10 swapped 51. I'm now finishing up the rear end and don't want to do the step notch or anything until I have the bags I'm going to use.
Front: speedway uppers, dehumped lowers, thorbros bag cups with airlift d2500 bags, belltech drop spindles, spring pockets cut and flared, little shop no toe steering. Rear: thorbros 4 link with a bolt in c notch. misc info: running boards hang 2" below the s10 frame and is the lowest point on the truck, I'm running a 350/th350. With everything listed above my truck lays the running boards flat. Now I'm not 100% happy with the bolt in notch I couldn't get it to land exactly where I wanted, I feel like its a potential weak spot, and I cant fit a bump stop. So now I'm planning on scraping the c-notch and building a small step notch/bridge. I want to run bag over axle keep everything in one clean simple package. Since I plan on running a gas tank behind the axle between the frame, exhaust dumped before the axle out the fender. And I've ordered the brackets already. I was thinking d2500 to match my fronts so I can keep a extra bag in the truck. But I read d2500 will ride like garbage on the rear and give almost no lift and I should run a f9000 sleeve bag or at least a d2600. My ride height is going to be low running boards 2 inches off the ground at most, I just need to be able to clear speed bumps with out getting hung up so maybe 6" lift total. So a d2500 with 7.7" of stroke at a 1:1 ratio seems right but maybe there's something I'm missing. What bags would you suggest and why? |
