Rear bagged suspension built ?
I was wondering if anyone can guide me alon on this. I want to do a simple bag set up on the rear. What i was wondering is there anyway i can leave my trailing arms and just add a longer external bar and mount my bag on it outside the frame as kinda like a 4 link? I am thinking of getting some hangers and mount them to the frame. Then get a bolt on lower bar from a company i found. Just wondering if this would work? Looking for something easy and quick to do.

Re: Rear bagged suspension built ?
The easiest way for the rear is bags right where the springs went. A longer trac bar with some adjustment to recenter the rear at ride height and some shock relocators w/ shocks. You can run schrader valves on the rear to set the height and leave it until you add air management in the future...

Re: Rear bagged suspension built ?
Didn't see you mention laying frame....you will need a large notch (not c-notch) to lay frame in the rear that will require cutting the bed floor....and no, you can't do it with stock trailing arms....
check out some of the setups in the suspension forum. Moving your post there so you can get better responses too...
