Nice, why'd you get new ones? I love the fab wing too, i'm not ready for body mods yet, i'm working my way up there though, bags first, then wheels, etc. hopefully

When you're putting those in take some pics of your SS bags installed man, thanks

Yeah I planned on taking some pics while its all out..

I wasnt using a din connector on one of my dump valves and I accidently broke off one of the poles so I soldered it on for the time being. I get a good deal on them so I figured go ahead and get a couple new ones since mine are over a year old now back there..

You can't use 90's out of the bags? do they not stick out low enough? Seems like the line would catch coming straight out like that

A Direct 90 elbow will not by itself. It sits to far up to get it there. . I just havent got an extender yet for them.. I havent had any problems with them though.

I didnt even get a chance to put the new valves in today it was raining like crazy on and off.

I plan on rerunning all the wires and Ill add my extenders to it. One thing I like about the SS Setup is there so easy to get on and off :D

that's always a plus ^_^ i'm glad to know i need extenders or that would've sucked when i started installing everything and found that out

Does it matter where the bag sits on the bracket? Like where you bolt the bag to the bottom brackets there are slots not holes so it's possible to mount it in more than one position, does it matter though?

If I am not mistaken on a 7" wheel you need +35 offset in order to TUCK. Not sit flush... TUCK. You also shouldn't go more than a +45 offset on a 7" wheel. That is when you will start seeing problems with suspension interference.

Different widths require different offsets though. It can be calculated, but your best bet is to post up what wheels you are looking for. Then people can make recommendations for width and offset.

Hope that helps.

By the way...

If you plan on keeping your troubles, they should work fine. They are 18x7.5 with a +45mm offset. You may even want to look into some OTG spacers for the rear. I plan on running the same exact size in the Konig Next. Wheels should be here within a week.

Oh... I just saw on your sig. that you bought the cylinders from 1616. Well you have the option of getting a spacer from One Ton Garage. If he has them available, that would be my first step. My bet is that spacer will be enough for you to clear the spacers.

Hope that helps.

Spacers man... spacers. Not the struts.

You will probably need a set of spacers to push your front wheels out a little bit. One Ton Garage makes them. Precision Muffler is one of their retailers. Hope that helps.

I beleive he is reffering to the Front Cylinders are rubbing/setting on the inside of his rim. Beacuse of the Offset of his current rims he has there sunk to far in and are causing issues.. By putting the spacers on it will bring the wheels out some to hopefully clear the cylinders from rubbing.
