Tip 6. proper bag angle. a lot of people set there suspension up so that the bags are comletely collapsed and laying flat (top and bottom plates parralel) when teh air is let out. what this does when mounted between the frame and the lower A-arm is to make the angle of the top and bottom plates, at ride height, very steep. you want the bag to be as paralel as possible AT RIDE HEIGHT. there will have to be a little comprimise here but the thing to look out for is extreme angle on the bags when inflated to ride height. this does not allow the bag to function properly and it puts all the forces on one side of the bag rather than evenly around the entire bag. your ride will be effected if this is not done correctly and the bags may fail prematurely. Fuck yes. I have never understood the mentality of using a chunk of 3" tube to set up a bag flat when compressed.I've always used the 30 degree design limit specified by firestone in their engineering manual. Start with 30 degrees of misalignment when laid out and your bag is going to look a lot healthier throughout travel.
