Front pics of bagged NBS anyone?

[lowryder99]

Okay, like the title states I just need some pics of a NBS truck bagged up front and what needs to be done to make the set up work.

I have a job coming up with KP cups and I just want to make sure I am trimming back in the right areas and what not (the truck will retain stock upper and lower control arms but will have drop spindles)

Anyhelp would be appriciated!

what size tires/wheels?
with my stock wheels all i need to cut off is the bump stop bracket

my upper cup is tall enuff but i have djm 4in lca and stock uca and spindles

not sure how the height of the kp cups

will a nbs lay all the way out on stock tires??

[lowryder99]

I believe it will be on stock tires for now and then possibly going to a 255/35/20.

If you cut it up enough....

Raise the front fenders. I'm not sure about fully tubbing the firewall, but at least beat it with a hammer. You also have to cut through the bedfloor in the rear to allow the differential to clear.

yea i got all that done so i should be alright

I'd suggest tacking the lower cup into place to keep the bag and cup from floating. This is what happened to mine and I rubbed a hole in a bag. You will have to cut the stock bumpstop off, also.

a new silverado will lay on stocks but it takes about the sameas laying it on 22s.....a 255/35-20 doesnt require spindals or moving the front fenders...cut off the bumpstop bracket and slap in the bag and your good to go after you pull teh front plastic fenders

ESPECIALLY if you use the DJM LCA's.

I thought the lower cups are bolt in with the KP cups? Or am I wrong? If not I should tack the lower cups to the stock arms?

Nope, just like every other lower bag cup they just sit in the coil pocket.

I tacked mine in also, knowing what happened to Pat and also just didn't like how it looked floating. I'm not sure on the kp cups tho. And a 255/35-20 will lay just fine on a nbs with stock arms/spindles.

what all you gotta do to lay on a 22??

The only time I've seen this happen is with the DJM's and of course nobody knew about it at the time.
