I love the re8's. Gets way more lift the the 7's. The 7's are overkill on the front of my truck. It gets 12" of lift, I can bounce the front and back on 175psi.

Na man, I tried to 3 wheel couldn't do it. I didn't try to hard but then again I don't want to fuck my bed up any more than it is and it will drag if I 3 wheel. I know what you mean about the 1/2 dumps dumping to hard, hell my 3/8 dump to hard in the front. As for breaking something, its metal, most likely as long as you don't have a fuel tank or something along that line touching the ground, your not going to break anything.

What I did for my cross tank x member was spaced it out underneith and then cut some out of the bottom and added some to the top to strengthen it. It sits about 1/2" from the frame, so Im careful in big rocks. The front I just put a board under the tank, jacked it up and put the bolt in a new hole and it did the trick. This was after I drug through my first tank and lost 30.00 in fuel and 60.00 for a new tank....it was fun tho haha If you ever have any questions, feel free to ask me. I built my truck. I did all the welding and what not. the only thing I ordered was a few tabs and the rear upper bag mounts so I know a lot about it. I also plumbed all my shit, ran my own edc with oiler and all the wiring. MAN that shit sucked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Slaps Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 for future reference. you dont have to weld in those front bag brackets they just sit in there. the weight of the truck keeps them in place.

lil_italy773 Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 cool man. i like that idea of protecting the gas tank. as of right now my tank is only 1" to 3/4s above the frame. i just help out a couple times while my buddy did my bags. so yea ill take up askin ya questions. thanks mario just for safty i guess all the ppl i know or see do there front bag cups weld them in. but i guess the weight would keep them in the cups.

Well actually, my brackets had to be welded in. I did not use bag cups if you look at my pics you will see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
