I have a '03 F150 SC I plan on baggin this winter and need help getting started. Looking to see what is the biggest size bag for the front and rear you can fit. I also need mounting ideas for the rear since the leafs are staying for now. I plan on using airbags or Shockwaves for the front.

cool thanks. any idea on what kinda lbs bag (2500 lbs or 2600lbs)?

slam 6" is same as a 2500lb, and 7 is a 2600 size...

don't hack it w/ the leafs, save up for that kp six link, it's bad ass and you'll get tons of lift too.

ok so any ideas on how much I'll need to notch the frame to lay on 20's? I'm not wanting to cut up my bed floor.

if you dont do a monster notch (involves cutting the bed floor) it wont lay

Ok great, here is what i posted yesturday...

the biggest size bag for the front depends on how much cutting you want to do. the firestones 2600's will rub if you just have a bag cup in use with your stock spring cup. the slam 7 bags will for sure rub. the best way is to remove your stock spring cup and build an upper bag mount that is welded to the frame. but for the slam 7 and the stone 2600's, you will still need to notch out the frame a bit in order to have room around the bag, and not rub. what i did was, removed the stock spring mount, and made a new one for my bags. and i didnt want to cut out the frame to clear the big bags, mainly because i was trying to get it done intime of a show. So i ordered a pair of the slam 6's. But, if you use the slam 6's, you will need to have a lot more presure inorder to get the lift you will need. i just got a bigger presure switch (200 psi) and that was that. hope that helps. let me know if you need any more help. LATE..

And for out back for your notch, make it big enough to lay on 22's. because, trust me later on you may want to upgrade, then you wont need to redo your back setup. I am lookin to upgrade mine to 22's and am sure glad i made my notch big enough.

well i think cutting into my bed is not an option. I'll just have to live with the biggest notch i can fit. i just had the bed sprayed w/a liner. i was hoping not to have to modify much on my front end. if cutting or making new bag mounts is what has to be done i might look into shockwaves for better fitment
