I'll take pictures of everything when I get home, so stay tuned. My set up is all of the shelf parts that I have reworked to fit properly.
front (from top to bottom): nut, lower bag plate, body of car(top spring mount), flange, 2" long x1.50" od pipe, s10 upper cup, bolts holding bag to cup, re6 bag, 3/8" stud into the bottom of the bag, chevy full size lower, lower control arm, washer, nut.
rear (from top to bottom): nut, washer, upper shock bushing, 7/16" (i think) stud threw the upper shock mount, 58-64 chevy impala upper cup, bolts holding bag to cup, re6 bag, s10 lower cup, lower control arm, 58-64 impala upper mount, washer, bolt from bottom to bag.
No shocks, at first the car was very "boat like", after some changes to the front it rides perfect. about 90psi in the front 80psi in the rear. I was on my way to the bar yesterday thinking about running the front bags at slightly different heights to reduce harmonic vibrations, but the ride there was uneventful and the ride home was even less eventful. So I figure if it's not broke no need to fix it.
I never wanted to run shocks, I took out to front sway bar for extra clearance, I cross my fingers at 80mph, the steering wheel is wooden and about twenty inches in diameter. To say the least it's not a sports car. It's a lowrider and I love it.
