my bags are here and i still cant decide how i wanna bag the rear, If i wanna do a bag on axle or bag on bar i want whatever will make it lay the lowest. I am gonna build what ever myself welding is not an issue its the design i cant decide. it will be a forward 3 or 4 link i have no prob moving the gas tank either, just want something simple and basic pictures would be great.

 

notch size would be nice to figure out too

 

bag on bar bro!!!!!!! its the only way to go... i have bag on axle on my nissan and its a rough ridin SOB... however, every bag on bar vehicle i have ever ridin in has rode like a Cadillac...

here is my nissan...

 

I think it will be a nicer setup if you relocate the gas tank. Then a 4-link will be possible. What you can come up with yourself will make it more unique.

 

P.S. NEVER MOUNT YOUR COMPRESSORS ON THEIR SIDES AS I DID... the piston only wears on one side of the cylinder wall and after a few short months they will be trash, just like mine were... i learned the lesson the hard way, dont make the same mistake i did...

 

makes sense that a compressor would wear away like that. i see so many mounted on their side, could qualitly of compressor help?

 

Viair comps are probably the best out there. An I'd suggest a bag on bar. I've had two trucks bag on bar an I won't have anything else unless it's a cantilever. Just come up with a design an go for it

 

If you want simple, I would suggest raising the stock tank to above frame level. If you have space, raise it up a good inch or more above frame level to protect it. And run a wishbone 3 link to clear the tank. You could run bags on bars depending on how much space you have around the tank, or run rear facing lift bars. Or a cantilever setup would work as well. Check out how Seth at twistedminis does his 3 link kit and use it for ideas.
