    How much lift are you guys getting my bags are fully compressed and all the way up I'm still tucking rim with slambags re6! I'm just tacked in so I can change it up if needed! I notched the frame and have the bags as far back as possible! Can I get some pics of lift please! Thanks any thoughts and comments appreciated!

    Yeah, with the RE6's you should be able to clear the tire by a couple inches on a non bodied cab. If it's laying rockers, I would think you could at least clear the tire completely.

    Pics of the bag would be a help.

    At what PSI does the truck start to lift off the ground? What is max lift at? Is there any chance you have an air leak?

    As long as you can get the wheel off you'll be good. I clear the tire easily not sure how much psi I had but I know it wasnt much

    I'm going to move the bags around a little I just wanted to make sure it would clear before I spent more time! I've just got my brackets tacked in! Thanks for the help guys I will post more pics as I go! I just want it to barely clear the tire with out it maxing out!

    are you airing up with shop air? what psi? having the bag closer to the pivot point will require a higher psi.

    I thought having it closer to the pivot point was less psi to lift not more? Just make sure your bag is fully compressed all the way layed out and then you should be able to clesr when lifted

    No, Bernie is right. It's all about leverage. In, more air, more lift. Out, less air, less lift.
