To all you BAGGED vehicle owners

Haha. I bet. But damn I know i'd spend upwards of 2.5k.

What year is your truck? Like I said, we are bagging my 89 Ranger for about a grand and we bagged my friends 94 for right at $800 bucks(see the pics on page 2). If you are close to TN we could hook you up

i would really like to do it myself but with school fulltime and work i have no time for it

and im more than capable of doing it seeing as i am a mechanic as well

so the one shop i went to qouted me 3000 parts and labor but the parts looked cheap so i started looking for my own kit and thats what i found the one i linked above i dont know alot but it seems to have everything included and at a fair price im guessing

It looks like everything is there that you'd need to do an over axle setup on a truck.

You could probably get the price down some by piecing a kit together through Ricky at WhyNotFab, Ant from StreetNShow, or through SuicideDoors.

I'm not sure what kind of kits Ant and Ricky carry but Jason from SD has a front special up on s10forum for members.

It runs for $645 and comes with everything you need to bag the front including air management.

I think it would be a good base to start with if you wanted to try and piece a kit together from there.

i wouldnt mind piecing together a kit but airbags is not my thing i wouldnt know whats better than what

i mean im just going by word of mouth some one linked me to that kit and i started looking at it and from what i can tell it looked good

im going to have to do some reading and find out whats good and whats not

Rob, just get on suicidedoors.com and email Jason and he will help you out. He will explain everything you need and give you a layout on what you should get first and go from there.

im about 500 short from buying that kit

its either that or buy a escalade conversion for my silverado

 

[rob_z89 10+ year member]

thanks man ill go over ther and hit him up

I am partial to Firestone bags tho. My friend has been running his 2500 for 4 years and never had a blow out yet. Also, if you do decide to bag your truck, always keep at least one spare bag but ideally 2. Dont wanna blow a bag and be left waiting a week for a new one to arrive.

 

[rob_z89 10+ year member]

will do then

ive heard zenith is good how true is that?

 

[SethPhillips 5,000+ posts]

yea im going firestone

 

[JLJunkieMX107 10+ year member]

Zeniths are alright, I know a couple people that have had them blow on them so I wouldnt recommend them. Firestone, Slam Specialties, and Air Ride Tech. would be my companies of choice.

 

[rob_z89 10+ year member]

ill keep that in mind

also will it be any harder to bag my silverado compared to my s10?

just wondering if i should even bother with the s10 and do it to my silverado instead since that is my little project truck

 

[JLJunkieMX107 10+ year member]

IMO s-10's are the easiest truck to bag. The silverado will just be more expensive since it is a full size which equals beefier 4 link and bags. I saw a guy with a 'rado and he had 18 inches of lift with firestone 2600's!!!
