Rear Bag question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

AKChevyman · 10-23-2005, 12:52 PM

Ok I know this question has been asked in the past but since the search function only seems to be working for the most recent post I have to resort to asking again.

How do I mount the bags in place of my Coil's I have an idea but want to see someone elses setup thank you for your time.

Thank you very much I don't know where I will find a big enough drill bit for the airline hole but I think I will take the frame off the trailing arms and flip it to make it easier to make the holes.

just get a unibit or a hole saw and you'll be set.

I got it with a decent sized drill bit, then notched it with a saw-zaw

AKChevyman · 10-24-2005, 11:20 PM

I went and bought a hole saw it worked pretty good now I need to finish painting the frame where I missed spots while it was on the axle I thought I had done a better job then that but I missed all kind of spots while painting on my back ;o) Then I can place it back on the axle after I change the trailing arm bushings. I will try to post pics later.

hurry up cuz:

sorry, someone had to do it......

AKChevyman · 10-25-2005, 11:59 PM

not a problem I finsihed up painting the frame and also ordered the polygraphite trailing arm bushings and sway bar bushings now all I need to do is paint bottoms of the lower A arms wait for parts to roll in like my bag brackets from SSD I have to order two upper A arm rubber bumps stops and every thing can go back together. I hope of coarse that isn't how it has been going lately always come across something I need like MY SS brake lines I need to order ;o)

What type of bags are you running?I am running contitek and they dont have a center bolt hole for the trailing arm.

AKChevyman · 10-27-2005, 08:27 PM

I am running Slam specialties RH7's they are the new evolution bags but they have three bolt holes on the bottom and two up top. they look a lot like the one in the link except the bolt holes on the top a futher a part so I had to mount the bag along the trailing arm not across like the link shows. If I had a digital camera I would post the pics.
