I'll definitely consider bags, I've always wanted to. It was actually a plan of mine, not sure if you seen earlier in the thread but I have a nasty C notch in the rear, haha. How much have your setups ran you in the past?]

i ran a 4way setup with 4-2way valves. bought the bags and valves from that site i posted and all the 1/2" dot airline and brass push fittings from NAPA. the wiring for the switches and valves i used 4wire extension cable wire, tucked it all under the carpet, it was a pretty clean setup.

10 years ago, when i did this, the whole thing cost around $1000 and i did all the fab work for the notch, bag mounts, 4link and cross members myself.

I would do bags, but I don't know how bags are for sliding it occasionally and some racing, because I plan on making my truck pretty fun with a turbo setup down the road.

if you do stiff enough shocks in the back and put in a triangulated 4link setup for the rear then you should be able to drift nicely with bags.

i used to buy all my bag and exterior stuff from these guys long ago and this is about the same kit that i used on the nissan.

On a couple sidenotes, the swap should start right after simply clean, I want to have it running to make it out there. Also, after the swap I'm thinking about getting some cheap Jegs steelies that are almost identical to Diamonds in 15x10 with a 4 inch backspacing. That, or Cragars. Is that overkill? Btw the wheels will be white. Here are some I've considered.

But I say bags...

i second this. i had a 1989 Hardbody that was bagged, the isuzu was my daily.

sorry for the shitty picture, it was taken before digital cameras were decent... lol

I used to have a 98 Toyota Tacoma and a lot of ppl used qa1 coilovers off a 68-69 camaro for those trucks mabey you should look into it? But I say bags...

[tfest]

yes, but as i said, i cannot find them on summit and i ordered the parts before they had a website so i cannot find my old order info for reference.

[Isuzupickup]

Bolt on?!?!

[tfest]

Hey, would you care to elaborate on the coilover setup you ran? I'm interested in running the same thing. Like making mounts and where the donor coils came from?

i used the hotrod style coilover shocks you can get from summit, this was about 9 years ago so i dont remember the specifics in regards to model numbers. it was direct bolt on, no fabrication necessary. i did notch the frame though, if i hadnt the frame would be sitting on the axle in those pictures.

Damn thats hard to believe those are 18's on that truck.

18" billet aluminum yo
