mine are mounted almost straight up and about on center of the trailing arms. top mount is 1.5 square stock running across buggy and plated in on each end. not greatest looking but you cant see due to gas tank location. my bags are ones i swiped out of the spares bin. they are for tag axles on our dump trucks. i still have tosion bars. they were weak before i put the 3x3 arms on. i run about 8 psi with just me and works great. got to bounce to bout 10 or 12 if old lady with me. been runnin it 2 years now and rides like a caddy. im sure its not the best setup but works well. plus im from the do more with less and screw looks i want function schools |
