Im new to the site and just bought a bagged 91 B2200. My question is if you guys have had any problems with your front bags rubbing your ball joints. I read everyone saying flipping your balljoints. I didnt know if this would help any. Thanks in advance for any sugestions.

it looks like the shock tower is pushing the bag out to far. everyone i have seen has the shock tower cut out and the brackets mounted to the frame behind the tower.

looks like you need a grinder for the frame then move the holes back and is that a 7 in there you might try a 6

So do I need to just trash the bolt on brackets and get the weld on's

You got it...don't roll with those bolt-in brackets, especially not with Grade 5 hardware....I would have at least thrown in some Grade 8....

i bought the bolt on ones at first too. i heard so many bad things about them so i scrapped them. if you can weld or know someone who can i would just get the weld one ones it will be much safer.
