thanks guysdoes anyone know about if you just replace the rear coils with bags, what kind of work if any do you need to do to the panhard bar to keep it from shoving the rearend over when you let out the the air

Your gonna have to make a new panhard. Ive done a few from the back corner of the frame to the center of the axle.

That's a good looking truck.

I've got a 53 Chevy truck for sale, $3500obo

Depends if you're gonna do a notch right away or not, when I first bagged mine it was just bags in place of the coils, no notch, and it was fine with the stock panhard bar, but if you notch it you'll need to fab up a longer one for sure. Even when I notched mine and changed the bag mounts I still used the stock frame location for the panhard, but I ran it all the way to the underside of the trailing arm on the passanger side rather than to the center of the pumpkin like it is stock.
