what are you doing about hood hinges when bagged with 20'' or bigger wheels , it seems that when aired out you need to trim the inside of the fender and remove the inner fender well, leaving no place to bolt the hood hinge. what are the alternatives??

I have some on order from nathan @ Porterbuilt streetrods. He just came out with them and they are slick! There is a thread on it in the suspension section for more info.

... and right now would be a good time to install them since you are re-working your firewall.

cstm68.... are you just bagged, or do you have other modified components on your truck?

When you mentioned bagged and running 20's the first thought that came to mind is what kind of BS do you have on your wheels. To accomodate for the inner lip on the front and rear fenders, you have to make sure the BS will work with an air'd out truck.
