So I finally decided to bag my square. I already purchased all of the parts and hardware last Thursday, and over the weekend I bagged the front. The air compressor, valves, switches, tank and all of the lines are installed. The only part remaining is to install the parallel four link out back. This will be the first time installing a four link, so if anyone who has experience doing this, your input is appreciated .
I plan on setting up the four link bars and panhard bar, then once everything is in alignment, start fabbing up the rear bridge and bag mounts. The rear bags are due to arrive in the next few days (2600lbs bags).
I have a basic idea of how to line up the axle and panhard bar to be parallel at the desired ride height. I alo realize that the pinion angle is key as well.
What is the best plan of attack to start with other than taking initial measurements to start installing the four link bars?
I will take progress pics to help others if they plan on doing the same.
