Wanting to go Sleeve Bags

I have a 01 S-10 which I am going to bag and bodydrop soon. Im going to run 20's all around. My question is because of lift requirements I want to run sleeve bags in the back behind the axle with a parallel 4link and was wondering what a good sleeve bag would be to run? I know there are different model sleeve bags out which go different heights. Anyone have any suggestions

Id recommend the F9100s, they give like 11" of lift and ride great but theyre very expensive at $195 each. Youre going to need all the lift you can get to be able to take those wheels off the truck, might want to consider a bag over bar setup.

The 9100s would be your best bet for sleeve parts. That bag has enough weight capacity to be installed on the bar with a small amount of leverage. That would give you some extra lift and force the bag to work a little bit (something that makes those bags ride a bit nicer).

Thanks guys. With the Firestone 9100 sleeve I will have to run An external bumpstop and an extension stop? Where would I be able to get these?

It's a good idea to have the rearend bottom out on something before the bag and limiting the suspension from drooping out on the bag is a just shy of a necessity. I typically just use the shock to limit lift and the frame (where the rearend and frame meet) to keep it from bottoming.

where did you get the specs on the f9100, 11" of lift seems like alot, sorry to jack the thread, but I'm looking into using them also.

EDITfound it, just incase you want themCapacity @100 psi: 2000#Min. Height: 5.25"Installed Height: 10"-10.5"Max. Height: 15"Diameter (inflated): 6.5"

These are the bags I am using on the rear of my toyota. They will work for the rear of a mini. I wouldnt run them on a fullsize. They are very soft.

Just wondering would an AirRideTechnologies Shockwave sutup work the same as a regualar sleeve bag? Are these setups pretty much the same?
