88 B2200 and 94 s-10

I just thought id share a few pics of my S-10 and my buddys B2200 we've been working on lately.

88' B2200...as of right now
bagged all 4 corners...front has RE6's and rear has RE7's
(2) Viair 460 comps
3/8 SMC valves
(2) 5gallon SS tanks (not on yet)
4linked

next few days:
tanks and valves will be plumbed
shaving door handles
shaving antenna
finish cutting bed and putting back on
cleaning all the brake lines and shit up so it dont look like shit

all together we have about 40 hours of work in the whole bagging process, it took a little longer than i expected because this was my first import truck ive bagged and all i had to go off of was some pics we found on this site (and 3 of the 5 pics i had to go by were wrong...the front brackets were welded in wrong and when i did these the same way, it wouldnt lay) anyways, we finally figured it out and it lays frame front to back now...heres a few pics

this is what we started with




a little cutting

A few random pics ive taken here and there

almost forgot...the mazda belongs to SpanksB2200 on the forum
just found this pic too....me and another friend saw this washable spraypaint at Wal-mart and decided to mess with spanky one night...he was pissed when he walked into the yard and saw it...lol..we had a big ass chevy bowtie painted on the tailgat too.....anyways, thought id share

dude you still have your spare tire holy crap for every mazda I have owened I have never had the spare still under the truck. Thats cool.

The upper bars on the Mazda need more triangulation.

Just the pic or are the bag mounts on the axel angled forward?

my mazda still had it but it was bone stock but both bad ass truck i like the s10 a lot the full time convertable is growin on me a lot(thinking what the mazda would look like)

will it hurt for them to be like they are? i thought they needed more triangulation too but i saw an assload on the web that were about where mine are.

I talked to you on the S-10forum a while back i think... about bagging the front...the 2 pics you sent me are the ones that helped me so much when we had to cut all that shit out and weld the brackets in at an angle to get it to lay.

they do look angled forward in the pic but i walked outside and they look straight to me and i havent been drinking tonight yet....dunno man but they for sure looked screwed up in the pic
