Check out my front setup...

I got the front of my 93 b2600i bagged... I'm runnin airlift dominators 2500s. I notched into the frame to get the bag closer to the pivot point. I'm runnin toyota spindles so please dont say anything about the lower ball joint bein flipped over... it has to be like that... I angled the lower ball joint up a lil to keep it from binding so i get more lift and i reverse pie cut the upper arm to keep the upper ball joint from binding so i get more drop... I get 11 3/4" of front suspension travel. What do some of you guys get?? My fender lip gets 31" off the ground right now so after i body drop it, it'll get 28 1/4"... thats alot of fuckin lift... But ya, check out all the pics, let me know what you think...

Oh ya.. and these are 18s, i'm gonna be runnin 20s but the overall height is close enough to use em for mock up... And the firewall isn't tubbed so its not droppin all the way yet..

just an FYI...you dont have anything holding your upper brackets on besides whats left of the factory welds on the upper shock mounts/control arm mounts..which are not meant to carry the weight of the truck..you NEED to run some gussets from your upper bag plate DOWNward to the frame..or that bracket WILL break and or bend away very quickly

you got a pic of it lifted all the way with the wheels on it

Right.... the main bag plate is welded to the frame.. I don't see any problems with the way it is now. Every piece i put in was 1/4"... the semi circle notch, the bag plate, the gussets, the filler plates for the frame..

And this pic is before i reangled the ball joints so it was maxed out by the lower ball joint... this was at 100 psi though... The spindle was only gettin 9 inches of travel when i took this pic.. from full drop to full lift

right...your not getting what im saying...your gusset could be an inch thick and it still wouldnt matter..because your gusseting to something thats not strong...your circle notch has nothing to do with the fact that you upper bag plate basically isnt gusseted to anything....im not trying to be a dick and im pretty sure i wont be the only one to give you this advice

how am i gonna get a gusset to attach to the bag plate?? i can't jus use regular triangle gussets cuz the bag is so big... it would hit the bag... cuz the bag almost rolls the edge of the bag plate as it is, anything added will hit the bag

just trying to help out..i hope it holds...

Trevor is right !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just a couple ideas

just because you can weld doesnt mean you can fabricate....
