front bag mounts parallel? ride or dumped

So should the front upper and lower bag mounts be parallel at ride height or fully dumped. 87 mazda b2k-mike

you dont want your bags to pinch or twist when deflaited.

At ride height. If not the two bellows will rub each other as you drive and can cause failure. You wont dump the truck in a full year to cause as much rubbing as one day of driving with a lopsided bag.

sounds like i got two completely different replies

when the bags are dumped, the top and bottoms should be even, if they arent, they will pinch and you will wear a hole in the bellow after time.

if set up carefully u can get it so the bag is compressed even when dumped...even when at ride height..and a little angled at full lift...this may require your brackets to be a little angled...just takes some pre fitting and measuring

I say parallel when dump

i still don't know who to trust in

I have had my bags for 5 years and they have been on two different trucks. And they are firestones. Trust who you want.
