about the only thing you can do is dogleg you will not have e-nuff lift in the front to do a 3 wheel you would also have to have a way to suck the front tire back up when the bag is m-t maybe a aircylender but there isnt alot of room in the front to put to many parts unless you dont plan on driving r turning as you can c i have put alot of thought into it and tried many atempts on a 95 hardbody when i was done tearing it apart and putting it back together again about 1000 times the only thing i could do was sale it for parts and start over on a 93 dime good luck

air it all up to max, turn left and dump the right rear and left front bag and try not to crash! ahahaha, its hard to make it three wheel, they make air cylinder three wheel tuck kits now, but they are ussually for rear wheel tuck, because of the lack of space up front.

ASk monica! I jock her driving 3 on bags.But a standing 3 is a whole diff story .As of now can you drop 1 rear wheel while locked up and push the rear corner down,to get a 3?If not a diff setup is prob required. what you prob would have to do is at least 2 to 1 ratio setup with the bags on the bars for the rear using some super pivots or heims.and get as much lift as you can in the front .By placing the bag lower some how(modded arms or notched front frame rail) But im just talking out my ass .

Do u have to have anything diffrent done to get a 3 wheel motion out of theses airbags? It kinda difficult sence these mini's lay frame so even droping the back and lifting u still get that corner drag i would think?

Yea sometimes. But if you get a desent size lift out back any things possible.And you can get BIG lift that still lays .Simplify-Frame it-Get those front bags as low as possible-rear Bags on bars-put bags in middle of bar if not slighty forward-Use some super pivots for the smooth side to side sway-Get a true triangulation setup with the upper links 45 deg-stay under 18's Big wheels create more problems (but who wants to gouge out some nice chrome 22's)-keep gas tank in rear-Keep one heavy sand bag tied to the passanger rear in the bed
things to beconcerned -Pinion angle with high lift,hitting a tree, someone laughing at your sand bag.

High psi and stiff bags = hop Slams, conitech,But you gotta have that consistant air supply to make it any fun.a single tap on a front of any truck loses alot of pressure ,so you gotta pump that baby.Like monicas whole 3 source thing-a-majig theory. she will be supplying air via 3 sources EDC-comps-and bottle.Scary yes ,fun *** yea. Now all she's gotta do is a 3 reserve thing-a-majig 1 reg tank shown-hidden storage tanks-frame tank!!

But really the 3 source thing should be very good.It would keep all sources working times down to the minimal.Less time on, less wear.Genius!!

ya i figure the bottle will be for fun, not daily tho of course, cuz it's going to take up a lot of room and i'm too lazy to refill all the time... but for the higher pressure stuff it should be good
the edc is just a beautiful thing.. and the AZ's are so pretty (purple), you can't say no to that, right?
wonder what the weakest point of my system will be heh heh....
