    gonna bag her

    I would like to bag my truck here in the near future. I am kinda stupid when it comes to suspension because I haven't a lot of experience in the field. My truck as I have stated before has a DJM 4-6 using the control arms up front and a flip kit in the rear. I was just curious as to what all I could re-use up front if anything. I want to keep my current ride height and be able to tuck the wheels, laying frame isn't particularly important, although if I can with just a few more mods i might make it lay frame. I want either triangulated 4-link or a 6-link in the back. just needing opinions, shops in dfw or austin area to use for some of the work, and advice.

    I have seen that dude here. I will probably do most of the install myself, I just want someone to build and install my 4-link or 6, which ever I go with because I am a novice welder and don't want my rear end blowing out from under me. As far as the bags, lines, tanks, compressors, and solenoids I can wire and run lines myself to save some moneys. I will probably use 3/8" hydraulic line, either that or 3/8" hard lines.

    That and I will probably still use my control arms, so it definitely wouldn't be worth the wait.

    You can keep your DJM arms up front and weld cups or bolt them on to the DJM arms. I would personally run a 6-link in the rear. There is a ton of information out there and you can spend days reading, but bottom line is that it comes down to what you want out of the truck, your budget, and what you're willing to cut up.
