they have a good article about it there.....not for the same use as yours but good info about using it....in the mean time, i'll dig for those photos....

Great little article. Im thinking I may have to do some junkyard searching. Any day I can get out to the yard is a good day
 
looks like a fun project, I have a 68 gmc I want to bag, but it has leaf sprung rear axle:(
not as easy to bag as a rear coil sprung chevy:cool:

Thats a bummer :/ Thats one of the reasons I like this truck so much, its pretty easy to bag. Maybe do a c-notch and a 4 link? Lots more work I know but its reliable
 
I havent gotten to much work done lately. Ordered parts, wrong stuff came and had to send them back. I installed new tie rods and front shock the other day but I dont have new photos.
I am going to have to relocate the shocks since they bind and wont allow the bags to fully deflate. Im currently doing some research.
 
Replacement fenders in place. More body work to come

Dang replacement parts! Ive never done rockers before and couldnt imagine that they would require so much adjusting. The passenger side looks pretty good, the drivers side will require more work. Rain storm stopped the progress for tonight.

Took out the rear shocks and coils to see what it looked like sitting frame on axle. Going to pick up steel tomorrow and start on making the rear bridge.
