Re: Bad rear bag job #2

If you're a certified welder and your dad is a metal fabricator, why didn't the two of you do this to begin with?

Re: Bad rear bag job #2

Im not a big fan of reverse 4 links at all .

but with you wanting to leave gas tank. I have looked an looked at the picture of your truck with the gas tank in , obviously reverse 4 link if gonna be the easy way out ..
or do a fuel cell an do a forward superlift,

Re: Bad rear bag job #2

just to let all of you know that to incur that kind of forward G's you would have to hit a wall or something. the front tires would slide WAY before the rear wheels come off the ground.

on another note, if you mount the bars parallel with the ground at ride height this is even LESS of a problem.

dont believe everything you read online!!!!

hope everything works out Art!

Re: Bad rear bag job #2

alright, i just looked back at the updated pictures and all i got to say is HELL YEAH.

art, whoever is welding on your truck now knows what they are doing. the only finished welds i seen were the very back lower link bracket to frame welds and they look professional. the reverse triangulated 4 link will work fine dont let anybody tell you differant.

the ride will be outstanding with the bag on bars, but you wont get as much lift with them that far back on the bars. i would have went forward with the bag mounts a couple inches for more lift, but thats nothing to worry about.

Re: Bad rear bag job #2

how the hell is so much misinformation flying around? is it all just opinion? i dont get this.

i read this to learn how things should be for when i decide i have the dough, and to make sure things are going well with artimus.

its just so confusing. so much info is thrown out there and then you(shard)come on here and discredit most of it with just a post or two....and theres no arguing.

just freaky.
