bigred66 · 03-22-2005, 10:42 PM

Ok my question is the 60-87 Front bag mounting brackets the same?
The first is from http://www.streetissuecustoms.com it sayes 60-87
The second is from Jason at http://www.***************** they say 67-87
What’s the deal will Jason’s work? I would rather get them from him.

bigred66 · 03-22-2005, 10:45 PM

Oh ya I have a 66 c-10 long bed

phantom dually · 03-22-2005, 10:46 PM

Just ordered a 8" notch from Jason and it is top quality!! FAST shipping!!

Alvin · 03-22-2005, 11:13 PM

Yes, either set will work on any 63-72 1/2 ton.. not sure about the bigger stuff. But there's your answer. I say this because I have plates and cups from both ***************** and AirRide Technologies, and the plates both bolt up the same, and AirRide lists them as 63-72 C10. Take that for whatever it may be worth.

bigred66 · 03-22-2005, 11:19 PM

so it is a go to get it from jason?
his sh## is awesome THANKS,

Shev · 03-24-2005, 01:29 PM

If you ordered from Doug at StreetIssue you would most likely end up with SD stuff anyways since he is a SD dealer

bigred66 · 03-24-2005, 02:31 PM

lol thanks

Yes, get them from him. I bought mine from him and they are top quality items.

orange72 · 03-27-2005, 02:25 AM

hey guys on those lower cups, did yall cut them down any. i ordered some and they seem really tall and i was wondering if there is any need to shorten them to get my truck to lay out. thanks. oh and mine are from suicidedoors also.

camaro__thunder · 03-27-2005, 03:27 AM

Im trying it without them as suggested by a few and my LCA bumpstops are gone.

Slammed66 · 03-27-2005, 04:29 AM

I built my own in a very short period of time using a hammer some C clamps and a grinder , and drill press, tonight , I removed my bumpstops from my a arms , I as well will be trying it with out bottom cup, I guess we'll see how that works out.

I have heard great things about the SD brackets and all his product for that matter

bigred66 · 03-27-2005, 10:27 AM

let me know how that works out i orderd all may stuff last week

BeerMonkeY · 03-28-2005, 11:07 AM

i have the sd cups and i wish i had cut them a little before i put them in

orange72 · 03-28-2005, 12:46 PM

are they a little bit to high or what. im just curious because my truck doesnt lay as it is so i at least want my lower arms on the ground. thanks

jlaird · 04-16-2005, 06:10 PM

i'm ressurecting this old post. how much if any can be cut off the bottom of the cups?

pbmcauliffe · 04-17-2005, 12:44 AM

I can look tomorrow to be exact, but I think it is about .75-1" that can be taken off the SD bottom cups.
Using the Airlift bags I am going to run w/o cups and see what happens, if they seem to rub too much I will modify the cups and use them.

bigred66 · 04-25-2005, 03:24 PM

any one fined out how can be cut off the bottom of the cups?

1low1967 · 05-03-2005, 12:05 PM

I have sd cups and cut 1.75 off and lay on 20s witha 275/45 tire. overall dia of about 30ins.

1low1967 · 05-03-2005, 12:05 PM

thats also with 3in drop spindles and 3 1/4 "z" in the frame

el curioso · 05-03-2005, 11:49 PM

Does any one have the exact dimensions of the top plate that mounts on to the crossmember. I had some xtra metal that I will not be needing so why not save a buck and make my own top brackets. Need to move my truck quick cuz this freak landlord decided to sell the house early.

I can still measure them, but with the SD top plates and no bottom cups, I am on the A- arms and very close to the crossmember (less than 1/4") deflated.
