You will love the Slam Specialties bags alot more. It takes less psi to fill them & they dont balloon out.
 
i wiah i would have done slams in the first place, are they still making them? i thought i read somewhere that they were not around anymore? by back is fins with firestone 2600s but the front needs allot of pressure so those slams would be perfect.

Yeah they are still making them. The price went up from $75 to $89 a piece. Slam aint going anywhere. Best bags IMO.
 
I have an 87 Monte ls with air bags, have bell tech drop spindels up front and I had the frame notched and the rearend narrowed to fit the 20x10 in the rear. I'll try to post some pics soon I just joined this forum but u can check me out at cardomain.com/ bagged87monte

Post some pics on here.
 
started bagging my 87 cutlass when i realized that wouldnt be low enough, so I built a chassis bench to do a stock floor body drop. we will see how that works out. if it doesnt i have two more rust free frames

Wow... Monte87Ls, your bagged Monte build is eerily similar to my bagged 84 Grand Prix. Btw your link is wrong, it should be http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3192643. Check out mine http://www.cardomain.com/ride/602491

By the way Monte87Ls, I noticed you replaced your radiator host with a stainless steel pipe. Is that safe? Doesn't the engine need to be able to move freely without being attached to the rad (because it needs some play) else it would damage the connection, pontentially causing leaks? Just wondering.

Back on topic though..... I have bagged and dropped my 84 Grand Prix, but I'm still waiting on my front wheels to get refnished before I can show what it looks like dropped. I had no problems during testing. I actually put in rubber bump stop at the rear, so as to be able to drop it all the way, and still be able to drive it without hitting the exhaust on the ground.
