to bag or not to bag?

MRSHAGGWELL · 08-25-2008, 08:43 PM

to bag or not to bag is my question. I have my truck static dropped at the moment but I have been considering baggin' it since I desire being as long as I can be, but at the same time I am on a budget like most of you. just looking for some feedback as I am in the process of doing the bodywork on the bed at this time.

it really all depends on what you want lol..im gonna go ahead and say that driving a bagged daily gets old at times, but im glad i did it

I would say bag it .. IF you can afford to bag it the right way an not half assed.( not saying you will ) Just half assed = problems.

x2....do it rightthe first time, go all in or dont go at all. This is why my buddy keeps hesitating if he should bag his too, b/c the RIGHT way for some that cant do custom stuff themselves can get a bit pricey....so wiegh your options out, and do not let yourself buy little shit here and thre cuz it will add up when you are short by XX amount of dollars to bag your truck. If you want to bag it, make ur mind up early and stop spending money.

This is how my buddy, llorracs93s10 has been privlidged to do this high dollar v8/6spd swap that he has in his truck. He doesnt spend money oon stupid shit that goes out of date quicker than you can say, WTF?!?...

well being I was a mechanic til 3 weeks ago, so yea it'll be done right the first time. what would be the best route as far as kits are concerned, price & value, being this would obviously be my first time baggin'.

suicide doors in my opinion has the best kits for the money..i would go with the 5link..if you dont want to weld, you can get their 5link backhalf..or you could get the roadgrater from ART if you dont want to weld..for the front, you can get the s10 front kit special, but i would get slam RE7's for the front bags

I would say bag it, if its not your daily driver anymore make a project out of it and do it right. In the end I think you will be much happier.
