Help with basic bag setup.

Heys guys I need a little advice. I am wanting to do a basic bag setup on my project 72 SWB Fleet and I am not sure which bags will give the best ride. I was thinking on the RE-7's from Slam Specialties on all four corners. Going to go in the stock location on the rear and use plates and cups for the front. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks

I ran re7's and Doesch Tech shocks on my '64 'burb and it rides very nice...very smooth.

Re: Help with basic bag setup.

I've heard good things about the RE-7's....also Dominator D2600's...The differences are basically

RE-7 more expensive, a little stiffer/sportier ride, and internal bumpstops

D2600 Slightly cheaper (20-40 each), slightly softer ride, and slightly more useable stroke (lower/higher) but no internal bumpstops

Re: Help with basic bag setup.

SGRIER, I have regular cpp c-notch. I also have 2"inch blocks for the rear, along with bags for the rear so that it can sit lower. Front is bags and cups. I cut 1.5 inches of the cups so that it can sit lower.
