Hey what all is entailed in baggin a truck? I was thinkin of dropping my truck, a 67 coils all the way around., with a drop spring kit. I guess I know the basics of it but if someone could really just lay it out for me and let me know of any little things that are often over looked I would really appreciate it. Thanks alot

Parts you'll need (this is very general):

Bags, tanks, air line, fittings, valves, switches....

The rear bags are easy, as they can be installed in the stock coils spring location. The fronts required some bracketry, but also mount in the stock coil spring location. Depending on how low you want to go, a rear c-notch may be needed.

Check out the pics on my web site...... might give you a better idea.

Hey Slammed..... cool website. I thought of trying something like the radio delete plate but didn't want to take off the trim plate of my radio (I'm working out alternatives now). Very smooth install though.
