im going to bag it!

my plan is dual 6" over the rear and not to look like an after thought

LOL all I know is there is always more then one way to do something... If you want to try and go with the stock arms then go for it, you will just have to come up with a way to mount the bags to the cast arm. My thought on all those "new style" drop spindles is they all suck for camber since all they are doing is pushing the upper control arm up before you even lower it (like on bags) so if you want to have good camber you still have to raise the upper arms and then that makes toe problems so you have to fix that too... As far as the rear goes EVERYONE has ideas on this one! LOL I love my 2-link on my dodge. I did a 2-link on Kelly Bise's "race truck" (its a dodge dually running in the low 10s) and it handles the power just fine. If you are running big wheels then you can not put anything on the outside of the frame or the inner tires will hit it. The best bet running a 2, 4, 9, 12 or whatever link you want is to build new hangers under the frame rail, that way the stock gas tank can stay where it is. The only thing that makes the trucks hard is the bags really need to be on top of the axle if you are towing any real weight and running anything but a 2 link you have to be creative on how you mount the upper bars to the axle.

thanks for the help. what do you think about me buying some djm upper and lowers and welding a bag plate on them? do u think if i do that it will lay with stock spindles and i wouldnt have to raise the upper arms? i think im just going to run a 2 link, can i get away with a watts link from kp? or should i be ok with a long panhard? thanks again and i think im just going to turn my exhaust down in front of the axel.

why not just order up some elbows and cut them to size and piece a rear exit exhaust up? If you don't trust yourself any good local race car chassis shop can do it for ya and probably get the elbows and such cheaper?

thanks for the link man. i will deffinetly do that.
