Simple bagging question

Yes I have used search button, but I am at work and dont have a lot of time to sort through threads. I just picked up a 77 crew cab dually, it actually use to belong to a member on here. the back is bagged but the front is not. I need to know all the crap im going to run into bagging the front. Are the upper mounting plates and lower cups the same as the 1/2 ton kit?? Do i need to do any notching of the frame for the steering gear??

Any pointers and pictures would help, or for the smart asses with tons of time to do searches, maybe you can post up some links of threads you find with this info.

Thanks in advance.

I am by no means a baged suspension expert, but I am in the middle of having my 94 bagged right now, so I can tell you that on mine, we are useing the same cups as a 1/2 ton, and we are notching the frame for the steering.

I couldnt tell ya. I have been taking lots of pics of the progress on my truck. All I can say is when we get to that point, I will post lots of detailed pics in my build thread. You can find it under the projects section here.

I don't think you have to notch the frame on the squarebodies. I didn't on my burb. I'll let you know in about a month. (I hope).
