You can get brackets and stuff from thor bros and or plasma your own. For time and money sake I did my own, but I'd suggest buying some of the brackets as they are cheap and look nicer than doing your own. Mine is a bag behind axle with the sleeve bags. But you can whatever setup you want.
Thanks 99. Yeah, building the link setup is no problem, done it many times. It's the air management that I have zero experience with. I don't want to have big $$ in valves, etc....that was the appeal of the simple leaf springs. I hauled a bunch with it again this weekend and I really need to do something if I keep this up.
