Re: 64 Chev C10 Slam (Noob Style)
Ok now that Im done crying about my bags rubbing, Ive looked it over and Ill adapt some bag plates I have to raise the bags up 1.5 inches, I had some strips of steel I bent into rings, then fit the rings into the bag plates and tacked. Ill weld em in at an angle so the bag alignment is better. Not real happy about losing that amount of drop so if Im not happy with the altitude, I will tear the bags back out and totally re model the LCAs for max droppage.
AND Ill trim the LCAs near the ball joints like Newfisher suggested.
If your running air bags I would suggest not being tight like me and trying to save a few dollars, In the future Ill be going with some PB LCAs that are made for air bags and save alot of wasted time/tears,
Oh yea for anyone keeping up, I decided to cut some plates and shim my crossmember BACK UP a half inch so I wouldnt have to move all my steering and do more frame notches. Everything bolted up fine, I had to shim the motormounts the same half inch also. So I ended up with a 1.5 inch drop on the CM.
A few pix
Have a good week!
