i learned the hard way i bagged a 2 link on a 66 impala wagon 15 years ago before every one made parts for these it road bad the pinion angle changed so much during its range of motion that you couldnt drive slammend had no side play and the drive wheel would come off of the ground on uneven ground. all are inherent issues with doing it this way

Great video lots of tips during install very nice. Have you posted the procedure to installing the front system? Would love to see it done by you guys for sure...thanks.
Quite a bit of list? LOL I disagree. slam specialty bags double and triple puck bags have way more lift. I would not drive it that low. But it does lay down nice and your work is very clean. great video. ;o)

What size bolts do you guys use on the front bushings to mount the bars. The biggest bushing and bushing sleeve combo Ive found to use when I build it uses a 9/16" bolt. Buildind a full size silverado and it just seems like thats a lot of weight for that size bolt.

beautiful, great job, but one technical note...that's a 3 link, not a 2 link, least ways according to the training I received getting my journey man's papers.
@zososldier7 жыл бұрын
In all car culture, they don't count the panhard as a link. I find it kind of annoying but everyone does it. 3 link offroad front ends still call it a 3 link even though it has a panhard. A parallel 4 link like drag cars use in the back still don't count a panhard. And old stock suspension like on these trucks still call it a 2 link even though there is a panhard.
@CainJimenez13 жыл бұрын
CHEVY USED A SINGLE U BOLT PER SIDE ON THEIR 2 LINK SYSTEM. OURS IS WELDED, NO I HAVE NOT TRIED PUTTING MORE THEN 600 H.P. BUT IT SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM. MOST OF OUR CUSTOMERS CUSTOMS, LOWRIDERS AND STREET RODS. IF YOU WANT TO DRAG RACE I SUGGEST A 4 LINK.WE DO HAVE A YOU TUBE VID OF 2 LINKK WORKING WITH UNDER CAR CAMERA VIEW. THANKS FOR THE TIME.
This isnt a terrible design just not ideal. My buddy has been rocking a 2 link for 6 years and its fine if you drive at the same height all the time on the highway. However, if your going to go to this kinda work just do a 4 link, it will keep the pinion angle more consistent.

what is the shock pipes size are they 3/4 inch or 1inches
@aaronstone339210 жыл бұрын
I'm just curious.I've seen this on a lot of linked trucks.What is the purpose of using the stock shocks?Wouldn't these slow the travel of the rear end?I mean the faster the travel,the better the setup.I don't get it.Why not use 4 bags instead of only 2.Any recommendations on brands of bags?
@zososldier8 жыл бұрын
+Aaron Stone i know it's late but i guess i could answer some of these questions. #1 - if it isnt a "race truck" or performance oriented you can use stock shocks just fine. as long as the shock is rated for the travel and weight of the vehicle. you can add performance or adjustable shocks but this should not be the only thing you use to adjust your ride quality or performance. type of link system and location of your bags will play a much bigger role in performance over a shock. #2 - By "a faster traveling suspension" i suppose you are referring to the fill rate. this is controlled by the size of lines, fittings, and valves. this is completely cosmetic. some like it to bounce up and slam down where others like the slower softer lift and lower. i personally started out with a truck running double 1/2 inch lines and valves which would cause the truck to get off the ground about 5 inches with 200 psi but it would violently slam down and all the space in between was terribly hard to adjust. as a got tired of this i moved to single 1/2 with a dump control. i have found that for my taste i prefer 1/4 line and valves for all 4 corners for a smooth and easy lift and lower. #3 - 4 bags on the rear would make the suspension far to stiff like driving around in a truck with super stiff towing springs. most air bags have a higher weight handling rate than your average mid-sized truck stock suspension so 2 is plenty for a cruiser. Also, having 4 bags in the rear would double the amount of air used to inflate which means your compressor is running more often leading to earlier ware. #4 - as long as you stick with name brand you will do fine. stay away from ones that don't have a warranty or name stamped on them. After that there are a lot of different opinions on which is a better air bag. i personally prefer slam specialties because they use a stiffer and thicker rubber which reduced ballooning and makes a more responsive ride rather than the thinner bags which can cause the vehicle to wallow or flout. slam bags also get ALOT of lift compared to same size bags of other brands. i dont recommend using these sleeve bags because they rub on themselves when collapsed which will cause a hole. (many stock cars use these kinds of bags on the rear such as navigators, Cadillac, etc and they all seem to go bad). reputable brands for bags would be contitech, slam specialties, firestone, air lift, and ride tech. im sure there are more out there but those are the ones i know off the top of my head. Hope that helped.

not sure what his problem is. bagging that is no different than bagging any thing else. when the bags get old and fail it will just sit on the bump stops so if your lowest hits the ground your stuck but that is the same with any other bagged suspension. im doing and IRS and i plan to go bags on all 4 corners. i accept the inevitable blown bag issue.

Thanks dude for making this video the dude who had the truck before me I don’t think he knew what the fuck he was doing every video I see the bags are at the axle or behind it the bags I got it on the truck are about a foot or foot and a half in front of the axle which makes no damn sense to me.
