Re: Which Rear bags with trailing arms

Great looking truck, mine had a similar color scheme to it before I tore it apart. It had white on the bottom half under the trim and a blue roof.

Re: Which Rear bags with trailing arms

So what mods did you do to the front to get it lower the second time?

Re: Which Rear bags with trailing arms

I kept the cupped lowers and added cpp drop spindles. Planning on a 'z' or dropmember next!

Thanks for all the comments on the truck guys! I will try to start a build thread when I get a day off of work and I have a little free time to sit down and do it.

Re: Which Rear bags with trailing arms

It's the red wheels and wide whites, I'm a sucker every time. But the color, stance, PB wishbone, there is a lot to love about it.

So for the front you have: drop Spindles (how much drop), stock arms, upper bag plates, lower bag cups, and SS bags. Correct?

I'm just trying to get an idea of where i'll be.

Re: Which Rear bags with trailing arms

It has cpp modular drop spindles, 2.5 drop I think, upper bag plates, stock lowers that have been cupped with 8" pipe which makes the bags sit about 2" lower down in the lca, and dominator 2600 bags. I woukdnt recomend using the 2600s with the cupped lca's because they tend to rub slightly. I'm going to swap to a ss bag soon. I don't have a pic of my lca's but they are just like these

Re: Which Rear bags with trailing arms

Hey those are my lower a-arms lol. I used 8" pipe that i cut and stretched to 9"because i run a 2600lb bag in the front. The bag has plenty of room with no rubbing in the a-arm
Also they got plated/boxed in on the bottom for even more strength as well

Re: Which Rear bags with trailing arms

I took that screenshot a while back to build mine. I stretched the pipe too!

My mom always had the best advice. It was just a tad late. After a fall that involved blood, she'd say....."Careful!"
