Behind and under or over the axle?

Aight I was just thinking of doin my behind axle setup instead of the over the axle.

Is there really a ride difference? I've got 2600's and they ride okay, just a little bouncy. I know shocks would help, but I was just kind of curious on which would be better.

It wont change your ride, but it can be a cleaner install because you could hide the bag better so it wouldnt be right thereon the axel for everyone to see. Not that an over the axel cant be clean but I like the bags on the bars so people can see them plus it rides better, with the bags on the bars depending on where you put the bags.

Shocks will help ALOT

By "bags on the bars", I'm sure he means mounted on your lower 4 link bars. It rides better than over the axle or "behind-the-axle".

Behind and Over the axle still give you 1:1 lift ratio and the same ride as the other.

f9000s best ride you can get with bags on the axle or behind and under
plus more lift than your 2600s
just make sure you limit their travel with your shocks
