i have an 04 4x4 sierra and im ging to drop it but i was wondering if any boddy has baged a 4x4. i dont need it to scrape the ground or any thing. but to low to tow would be nice

 

why dont you take the 4wd off and bag the front too

 

i live in canada i need the 4x4 for the winter that lasts 7 months a year,
Ive herd of a couple of people doing it but i was wondering if any body here has done it or seen it

 

it's been done before, but it's difficult. the rear is the same as a 2wd truck. you could do your bags over axel or whatever your heart desires. for the front you can do a torsion bar style bag job where i think you put the bag on top of the upper control arm and then create an extension from the frame to mount the bag to. check over on gmfullsize and fullsizechevy.

 

cool thanks for the help

 

You dont need 4 wheel drive in Canada...lol. Ive drove through snow passed my lower bumper and my alternator belt was slipping there was so much snow.....just a 2 wheel drive with really expensive toyo winter tires...but a 4by4 would be nice.

 

i dont remember where i seen it but there was an AWD SS (i think it was red) that was bagged and layed frame and he said the AWD still worked.

 

dont do it, bags freeze up and dont function to well in the winter, when they are being pounded be snow/slush/road salt

 

How do the semis manage then? They have bags and are used year round.....

 

and you have the experience? Id like to know where you got your parts from then, so I can add them to the list of places not to buy from like shAIM industries for example.
exactly, if the job is done right they work perfect no matter what. In colder climates you can add insurance like antifreeze type solution for you valves, along with an air dryer to prevent water freezing.


yes you can bag a 4wd, you need a shop that has done it before to do it right, like stated rear is easy front is the tricky part and you want be able to lay all the way down driving with 4wd, its low 2wd or lifted up with 4wd
