Re: project bagged 63 c10

Great build man, nice to see someone else baggin with trailing arms
My only concern, I didn't read the whole build but I noticed you offset the bag brackets on the trailing arms.
Iv seen several trucks break down from major twisting.
Even by as little of an inch will make the trailing arm go out of wack.
The trailing arms a designed to twist which is why they have the I shape

Not trying to complain about the build, just watching a fellow baggers safety

Thank you Jason! Well to be honest it is a buick 350 and a turbo350 trans. Not really what I wanted to use but the price for the big bubble was in my budget lol. The motor and trans only have 10000 miles on them since they were rebuilt. Figured I would Atleast freshen it up a bit after all the work I am doing didn't want to throw that ugly thing back in. It actually runs really well.....but plan to build up a nice sbc down the road. :chevy:

Haha I don't plan on driving in the rain but you never know. I do plan on drilling some holes before final install and thinking about bedlining the bottom of them to help with road rash.:chevy:

I just wanted to say again how much I appreciate everyone that takes the time and check out my build and leave comments....definitely motivating!
