Good eye there. It had hydros on it back in the day when i got it, just in the rear and only set on bump stops lol. Going air on this. My mazda is on juice. Haven't cut those off yet.

Never really been into hydros, especially on a truck when theres not really a way to hide the cylinders. The lift is nice and all that it's just not really my thing. I suppose on a truck you have less to worry about if you get a leak and such, but I'd much rather have to fix an air leak than a hydraulic fluid leak. Does the mazda ride nice?

Front's not too bad the back is stiff. I'd like to put accumulators on it, but i;ve been dumping my money into the toyota lately. Got front bag brackets and 2 slam re6's on the way. Need some drop spindles.

You kinda run into the same problem with bags though, unless you run a setup that uses real low pressure, theres just not enough weight. I've heard of people using accumulators but I've never ridden in anything with em. Just been in and around a couple buddies lowriders, trying to convince them to go with bags. Its kinda weird seein lowriders nowadays with bags though, I'm so used to seein hydros on em.

Front bags and brackets came in over the weekend. I believe bagging the front is next on the agenda.

Finally got spindles and got the front bagged, just need to gusset the top brackets. Rolled it out today to get a visual.

The top control arm hits the top bag bracket when aired up. I think i could get a little more lift. Should I get top arms or what do you guys do?

mine does the same thing, i hate it. ill buy arms when i can afford them. i get enough to turn lock to lock so im fine. I normally ride like 2 inches off the ground and i can turn enough for driving the town until i make a sharper turn.

Bump is yours bodied? What size wheel/tire?
