Bagged using stock steering arm??

I'm looking into bagging my 67 c10, and never even thought about having to use one of those 3 peice steering shafts. My question is if i were to use the stock control arms, leave the crossmember alone, and basically swap out the coil w/bag can i use my stock shaft? also anyone use slam bags on their trucks, if so what size (height) bags did you use front-rear, thanks

You'll be fine using the stock steering components if you don't plan on Z'ing or sectioning the crossmember. I'm running Slam RE7 bags front and rear and they work great for me.
