84 1 ton bagging

I came across a really good deal on a 84 crewcab dually and was just wondering how much harder this truck is to bag over a half ton. I haven't bagged a truck of this generation yet but i'm gonna assume it's got the crossmember hangin low in the front. Just wondering if anyone had tips or advice or even some measurements on a 4 link since i know no one makes a kit for these trucks. thanks for any help

Re: 84 1 ton bagging

heres my 88 1ton cc dually. all of the front suspension was totaly bolt on. lower and upper control arms came from the junk yard, new half ton dropped spindles from summit, new wheel bearings, rotors, calipers, brake lines from autozone. i havent got around to dealing with the sway bar yet, but i know that there are lowered mount that bolt on the frame where the stock ones are riveted. in the back i back halfed it (though its still not done ) with a 95 impala ss diff, two link, and eventually a watts link
