Bag psi?????
Ok guys here are the questions...
1) what bag psi is your perfect ride hight? 2) what psi rides the best on your ride? 3) what would you consider to be too little or to much? And before answering... I know all trucks are different...it depends on set up , weight, etc....that is not the point of this thread. I would like to compile a general pole for what works for people. I have learned a lot with my install and have come to the conclusion that just bolting on a kit may not always be the best approach. There is some design and planning that needs to happen to achieve a good end result weather it be on a 67-72 or any other classic. The reason I bring it up is this....I have a buddy that had a local hotrod shop retrofit his 48 chevy with bags...it looks sweet and on the ground but they suggested he run 100 psi ride height for clearance....well it works but rides rough...let some air out it rides good but rubs everything including fenders. After my install it seams mine may take to little psi to get the desired ride height because of the body drop. This leads to a very good topic that is not covered in any other forums....it have Googled it. Well since this board is known for great info...let's cover the topic for other classic drivers to find. Please give a description of your setup in your responses because that is what determines how others can achieve similar results. As an example of good info....on our trucks many kits come with a rear upper cup..sure it makes the install easier but it also adds a inch or so in bag height so if you feel your rear psi is to low and moves around you may be able to remove it and run a little more psi in rear and still look good... Thanks to all who choose to submit and subscribe!
