Couldn't you just run the 3-link and do a bag over axle and eliminate the trailing arms?

Just thinkin here because we're getting ready to do my sons and am trying to decide if a 3 link or 4 link is better.
When you put the air bag over the axle your ride isn't as good. Plus when mounted on the trailing arm you will get more lift.
Nice job Bill

Thanks for the reply. With the bags on the trailing arms can you still pull a payload and lay LOW?

Very nice looking truck.

Re: How about some pics of bagged C-10's

looks good. Is that a repop bedside? If so, how's the fit for you? I've heard they're pretty good.

Yes its a repop, got the sides front panel and tailgate from LMC as for the fit its not to bad... I made my own bed floor so i could bring the gas tank up, hide the tanks and compresor, and allow the pot to not hit the bed floor. Right now the front panels a little low on the pass side by about 1/4" and the tailgate sits maybe an 1/8 to 1/16" to high but im happy, when im ready ill start messing with fitment. And thanks for the compliment!
