how common is it for the front bags to rub on an 89 yota,im bagging mine but i dont it to rub in the front, any pointers
You shouldn't have any problems with rubbing. Just cut the top off the steering stop on the arm. Thats the only thing my bag would have rubbed on. And it still work with the top cut off, so no worries.
On my 94 yota I had to notch the frame for the top bag mount. When I first bagged it I didnt notch it and I blew a bag it was rubbing on the bolt that holds the bottlom ball joint in. You need the bag as close to the frame as you can get it. I learned this the hard way.
I have pics of my install on my site, been daily driving for over a year and a half now with no rubs at all.
WHat bags are you running??
look at rickys site the pics make it simple
me and my friend used rickys diagrams and used slam re6's and they dont rub
