controling my arms?

[ah_5500]

im in the middle of baggin my 94 gmc and when i get done ill cruz abit then i wanna get some tube arms for it and i was wonderin if i could get some djm 2inch drop arms and either put my cups in them or jus make them to where my bag mount right to it. anybody know??? and im assuming that this will get me 2 inches closer to pavement providing i notch the firewall and tie rod....and is the sway bar a prob.? thanks and if anybodys got any pics of this stuff it would help a lot..... peace

I'm pretty sure that you'd need a 2" cup on the bottom because the bag can't sit inside the pocket because it would rub. As for the 2" closer, it won't do anything for you unless your static.

The drop pockets on the arm are gonna rub on everything, either run the stock arms or get some ART's.

there is a guy on gmfullsize selling some for 699 upper an lowers. They look a lot better than ART. I think his name is BADHABITMAN or somthing

did you still use cups on bottom?

no, the bag bolts to the lca

[volcomstone496]

i modded some for my truck, an old c10, and they work well. i put the plate on the bottom of the control arm in stead of the top, to get it lower to the ground, after i cut out the spring pocket the control arms came with. the bag bolts straight to the plate, no cup. ill post pics of them when i can take them.

[Dukemaster]

Yea i havent decided to get some djms or set for bags

[Izzy]

If you get the DJM's be prepared to mod the sway bar mount too, the angles are rediculous.

[ah_5500]

how do u mean mod the sway bar mount. how much. what about the option of taking it off, good or bad idea.

[Izzy]

I had the 2" arms on the wifes static drop and the sway bar mounts hit the spring pocket and the angles no matter what length end link I used sucked.

hey joakwin, do those balljoints or anything bind up when your aired out? Because on my daily blazer I have some djm drop arms and was going to bag it.

i have 225/75/15's on the truck with modded djm lca for bags, djm 2 in spindle, slam bag 72 and stock uca with mog ball joints,
built my own upper bag cups, had to angle cut them to push the bag out from the frame, 3 on the inside and 2.75 on the outter edge

the lca don't bind even with 235's on it

the uca bind with 235's on the truck
