Thoughts on this rear bag setup..

i wanted some opinions, pros and cons to this rear setup im thinking of switching to.

i want it something like this, well a lot like this..



i was thinking of ordering 36" Rectangle square tubing 1.5" x 3" x 3/16" Wall, and 4 circle plates. weld the cirlce plates on the trailing arms, further along away from the stock coil spot, and gusset them of course. then run the top rectangle tubing crossmember across, bolt it in, and also weld it on. weld the top circle plates to the crossmember, and also gusset it. im switching to smaller blocks to help with scrub line issues (2" blocks with 15's is too close for me), so i would like to gain it back by moving the bags. and also my rear driver side bag is not centered correctly, causing it to twist when fully deflated.

so i figure moving them will get me lower, and center my bags correctly.

any thoughts or opinion, input is greatly appreciated. thanks!
