contitech vs Slam Specialty

[CHAPS7931]

my self i use the contitech 4 ply with dual port and i love the response i get when running high psi but would like to get some more info on what bags the other members are using and why?

[jimmydean]

I am using Slam RE7's in the front, and RE6's in the rear. I am about to order a 2 more RE7's for the rear for the added ince of lift. I like the internal stops and they don't seem to balloon either.

Jimmydean, how much drop does your truck have with those bags? any drop spindles or just bags? im about to do my truck and trying to figure out which bags to use. thanks

With 2.5" drop spindles and uncut Suicide Doors cups in the front and a 3" cup in the rear, it looks like this:



The rear is sitting on the stock bump stops and my frame is uncut. I will go about 3" lower once I get my new exhaust. I will notch the frame and cut the cups. I'm also getting slightly smaller tires I think.

Jimmydean, why would you need cups in the back, wouldn't it just bolt from the trailing arm to the frame?

I didn't need cups, but I had them and without, the back would be lower than the front. This way it sits even and I didn't have to notch my frame.

I will pull the back cups out after I notch the frame. I will cut the front cups down to keep the stance even.
