im new to the forum!
i am going to air bag this on a budget. not planning on cutting the floor or notching the frame. i was wondering if any one had any templates for the rear mounts or front mounts for the bags. the truck has trailing arms in the rear and original a arms out front.

Re: im new to the forum!
Cool a hamered lid, you`re about as low as you can go in the rear without c-notching the frame. And Welcome to the site...

Re: im new to the forum!
Welcome to the forum!
Not sure if this is something you'll need, but these bag cups are for sale in the classified section and they seem to be a good deal and the individual selling them is legit... http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=493090 Love the look of your truck, by the way! |
