Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

The rule as I've heard it is yes. The bag is only a replacement for the spring so if you don't it would be just like riding around with out shocks on regular spring based setup. I don't have mine in yet and while it doesn't ride bad it is rather bouncy.

I would say yes. Before I put my shocks on, bouncing on the truck was like bouncing on a exercise ball. Now it feels nice.

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

Yes, and I say sway bars are good to have as well if there is room. They all just work together to offer a nicer ride quality.
