Re: Which bags on my 55?

Hi Chris, thanks for your reply- think you posted while I was typing! Hmmm with your reply I'm confused again- having never bagged a vehicle before or been in a truck running bags it makes the decision tougher. As I understand it the smaller bag requires more pressure to achieve the same height as a larger bag and therefore the smaller bag gives a harsher ride. Something that may soften the ride though will be the front tires- 205/65-15 and the heavy sbc!
Well I won't be ordering for another week or two so I shall think on it some more

The other thing to think about is what height you plan to ride at, everyone I bagged trucks for including myself and other people I know with bagged trucks spent most of their driving time at only a few inches off the ground so even a re6 isn't stiff. But if you plan to fill it all the way up most of the time then you have some thinking to do
