720 front setups

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had some pics of 720 front setups. The way my truck is now I can get about 7 inches of lift but the spidles rub the bags so really I have about 6 inches (dont laugh, its average!)
I'm just looking for any idea's how I can set the bags closer to the frame or maybe ontop of the top a arm.
Thanks!

I'd recommend against running the bag on the upper arm! The upper control arm wasn't designed to take the weight of the truck, so you'll wear out bushings and balljoints VERY quickly!
My old Datsun frame was notched inward about 1.5" to move the bag into the frame, but it made the front suspension very weak- partly because it was done poorly, but also because this is the tie point for your suspension, steering, and motor mounts- a very important section of your frame! As long as you braced the backside, and possibly added a hoop up and over the engine from rail to rail, you could do that and be OK.
Good luck!
