Looking to bag my 72' C10
 

I have a 72 longbed. I've been really into the bagged trucks for a long time. Used to have a bagged s10. But i'm thinking about putting bags on my c10. I have several questions for this though. I'm not sure exactly who to message about my questions.

Do they make bolt on c notch kits?! That would include everything for the back. Bags, Mounts, Everything.

Who would the manufacturer be that carries the bolt on kit?

Also looking for the kit for the front, would it be the same manufacturer?

I don't really want to "z" my frame to be honest.

Thanks in advance for any information about this.

Do you have any experience with any of these kits by chance?

Re: Looking to bag my 72' C10
 

You can look at my build thread, I have their kits. you can get stuff cheaper, Like a CPP notch is about half the price, but the Porterbuilt stuff is better quality.

Re: Looking to bag my 72' C10
 

Yes.
I consider Porterbuilt the best C10 lowering (static and air ride) products that you can buy.

Re: Looking to bag my 72' C10
 

Sweet. I'm definitely going to go with porterbuilt I'm not wanting it to lay frame or anything like that, so no going way over the top. Anyone know how low the stage 2 basic kit would allow me to sit or what the ranges of heights are lowered and raised by chance?

Re: Looking to bag my 72' C10
 

Your height is going to depend on other factors, too, like tire size. With a 27" tall tire, my crossmember is about 2" off the ground. That is with the stage I front kit (plates, cups, bags, shock relocators) and 2.5" drop spindles. The front sits slightly lower than the rear when fully dumped, but the axle touches the top of the notch in the rear. In my experience, you won't know EXACTLY what you'll get until you have it installed. The numbers seem to vary (slightly) from truck to truck. I'm happy with my dumped height, and fully aired, I can go on up higher than stock height. My ride height is probably similar to a 4"-6" drop. I have been really happy with the Porterbuilt stuff. It is extremely well made. It isn't cheap, but it's not made cheap, either, and they have done all the research, so if you install their kits like they say to, you are basically drilling and bolting, which was good for me as a first time bagger. I would definitely use them again.

Also i was lookingh at the stage 1 here kit for the front. Is that the kit you used cubber? If not does anyone else know how thatd work with the stage 2 rear. Really want my truck to sit level overall once i install kits like this. But not sure if i can achieve that with the front stage 12 kit and the rear stage 22 kit. Or should i just call porterbuilt and ask them

Yes. I used the stage 1 up front.

Re: Looking to bag my 72' C10
 

It depends how low you want it and wheel size.stage 1 front and stage 2 rear will get you pretty low with out cutting up the bed.

Re: Looking to bag my 72' C10
 

The Stage 1 kit and Stage 2 rear do go together well. We have our Pro1 kit we put together using these 2 Porterbuilt kits. We then include our Pro2 air management that uses dual VIAIR compressors, 4 gallon tank, AccuAir VU4 valve, etc..... The truck will sit fairly level with this system, of course depending on your wheel size and tire heights.

Porterbuilt quality is well worth the money and the wait. If you can't get it save up because you won't regret it. Plus if you decide down the road that you want to go lower you won't have a problem upgrading or selling what you got.
