Worked on the "passenger side" front bag setup yesterday... took me about 10 hours with one trip to taco bell to get where its at now.. I dont know if its really 10 hours worth of work, but its my first time with some of the things I did.. I love the way it turned out, but still has work left...

My goal is to lay frame with these big ass tires so I can keep them for the winterrr..

thanks for the comments guys, Im as far as I want to be at the moment, bag in place, wheel back on, etc.. but unfortunately its still not laying... any suggestions??? I pie cut the upper control arm and reset it with an extra 5 degree angle... Im thinkin the upper ball joint is bottoming out?? Ive swapped the bj's but I just need another 3/4"..

They way you cut the LCA mount looks a little sketch. I would beef up the inside of that as much as you can, because that is a huge stress area, and really shouldn't be cut that much at all. But ti does look like really clean work.

Lookin good man. Whats the advantage of notching the arm like that?

Thank you, the main reason was, the lower you mount your bag, the more lift you get when aired up, also I wanted to mount my upper bag plate gussets upwards...
