Slam specialties RE7's?? Still made??

I want to buy a set of rear bags. I have read alot of good things about the slam specialties RE7's with internal bump stops. I cant find them on *****************. Are they still selling these bags?? Anyone know where i can get em???

Any recommendations on which ones i should run.

RE7 is a 7" RE200. Where as an RE6 is a 6" RE200. I think you are getting caught up on the name scheme.

RE = 200PSI
HE = 400PSI
XS = 600PSI

Yes, the RE7 is a great setup. That's what I used on my last truck and depending on what rear setup I go with, it will likely be what I use on this rig as well.

Re: Slam specialties RE7's?? Still made??

it also depends where you mount you bags. because the dif. diameters also mean different lengths and usable stroke.. here is a link to check out the stats. http://slamspecialties.com/s_compare_fv.html
