Under Axle Bracket... need pics/info...

hey guys, i did a search but didnt really find what i needed i guess... i was just currious what the advantages/diss-advantages are to using this setup? Im guessing it would allow the rear to sit a little lower then with a bag over axle setup? if anyone has any picures of their setups even if its in your profile it would help aswell... thanks in advance!

The mounts themselves don't determine how low the rear of your truck will sit.. since the ideal setup is mounting the bags fully compressed when laid out. How low you sit will depend on your notch/link/etc. The bags just lift you up and down from the lowest point.

The different brackets (Over Axle/Behind Axle/Behind & Under Axle) are just different options depending on the room you have, the look you're going for, and more importantly.. the less you want to cut the bed. With the Behind & Under Axle brackets you can have the upper bag mounts/crossmember lower than with the other two bracket styles.. meaning less cutout in the bed (depending on wheel/tire size though.) The Behind & Under Axle brackets can also double as your lower link bar tabs under the axle (2.5" width)

Here are some pics of a Hardbody I did a while back..



You can see how I didn't have to cut out a huge section of the bed for a bridge type setup with over the axle brackets.

Hope that helps some.. good luck.

nice man.. thanks for the info!

no problem. let us know how it goes once you figure out how you're gonna do everything.

yea plus it seems to ride better. i did under and behind on my s10 cause of the 22's i wasnt getting enough lift and didnt want to raise and have a bag bridge above the notch. so i set it as low as i could and it stayed under the notch height.

^ Nice Setup

thanks it was something we did in my garage to get the damn 22's to work. turned out betetr then i thought, but then looking at it couldve made it better. oh well its got a new 4 link on it now cause its being BD by hellbent.
