    I'd like to bag my 63' Falcon Wagon but I understand there is more to it then there would be for a truck or something with a chasis. Any ideas on how this would be done? I've seen different methods, whoch is the most affordable and safest way to bag front and rear? Thanks.

    you can put the bag right where the coil was in the front....we left the trunions(swivels)..in one we did and all.
    worked great:bouncy:

    as for the back...we made a cross bridge and hung mounts off the front of the diff....air /over leaf is frowned upon...but it works great

    Thanks, Do you have any pics? I thought that made enough sense to do it that way but I have seen other rides and people seem to venture away from that. Also, I'd like mine to lay body all the way around...

    ya...about the pics?:biglaugh:
    we did a while ago on a whim....never stopped to take any:oops:

    as for laying frame?...that aint gonna happen...unless you want to notch the rear frame...and the shock tower covers...and the tie rods will hit the front frame as well....our lil Falcons were not meant to lay frame:slap:

    my 61 thats somewhere in my garage pics...was uber low(with hydros in front)...and you couldnt turn with it dropped...an i was running lo-pro 13's to get it that much lower:29:
