Thank you for this video! There's not many videos about cupping the lowers.

@SIMPLE.C10 2 года назад

I noticed that! I’m glad I’m able to help some people. It’s not difficult but there are a lot of things I was worried about the first time I did it.

Appreciate your videos!🙏🏽 Do you have any suggestions for a truck with tubular c.arm? I swapped them out with a POL “stage 3” tubular upper and lower. Not sure how go about it. Any info would be greatly appreciated! 🙏🏽

Have you used the switch suspension control arm you sell on any of your builds? Thought?

@SIMPLE.C10 8 месяцев назад

I will install it on Francis soon and have a video about it!

Hi Justin, Using the Same front vela works upper and lower pats kit. My question is what will become of the front sway bar, as cup is so close to attachment points… great video thanks in advance.

@SIMPLE.C10 10 месяцев назад

Hey buddy! My name is Travis. I don’t use a sway bar on my builds.

Hi simple c10, i have a 70 c10, have 2600 air bags, im thinking to cup my lower control arms, but need to make sure it will make difference between have it cupped or not, because if i want to drive it low it gets rought driving , have 2 1/2” drop spindles too, if i cup it, will improve suspencion softness or is the same? Thank u love your work

@SIMPLE.C10 Год назад

Cupping your lowers allow the bag to mount to the bottom of the a air allowing you to have better pressure at low heights. It’s a must.

@luzsolis3096 Год назад

Looks very nice! Does the truck ride’s smooth? I’m looking for smooth ride not sure if I should use coil over or bags..what’s your opinion?

@SIMPLE.C10 Год назад

Bags done well ride very smooth. I’ve never had coil overs.

@larrypritchett2264 Год назад

Hi - looking for info on how you connect air line to fitting after mounting the top bracket to the crossmember ? It must be easy because no one mentions how to get the line in there but I've never done it before. Thanks

Hey man love the videos my question im got a 83 c10 and i see in your video your using stock uppper and lower my question is how many shimes did you use for the upper cause mine as it sits with no bags has 11 damn shives

@SIMPLE.C10 7 месяцев назад

I usually have about 3 or 4 but it all depends.

@Inmywhitetee77 2 года назад

did you center the ring to the center of the spring pocket or you just do the 1 inch and one inch on sides?

@SIMPLE.C10 2 года назад

I did exactly what the video shows and everything aligned perfectly. This is my third truck I’ve cupped.

@Inmywhitetee77 2 года назад

@@SIMPLE.C10 ok. My truck is a 70 and I’m getting ready to do mine but was wondering how I would line up the cups.

@SIMPLE.C10 2 года назад

Just follow my lead and everything will line up.

@claytonhaske Год назад

You mentioned you used 2.5" drop spindles. Would 3" drop spindles help you get closer to laying frame?

@SIMPLE.C10 Год назад

Great question. The answer is No. Because my control arms hit the ground before the frame does. The setup I run will get you as low as you can go without sectioning the crossmember, zing the frame, or getting an aftermarket drop member.

@@SIMPLE.C10 thank you for the reply brother!!!

@56collin Год назад

I love watching your videos, learned a lot so far about airbag . I would like to bag a 1959 Chevy Apache with a 5 x 2 tube frame with a Camaro stub. Do you think I would just follow your procedure on cupping my lower control arms I don’t see much on anybody bagging with a Camaro stub. Any guidelines on this I would sure appreciate thank you.

@SIMPLE.C10 Год назад

I’m not familiar with it either. I couldn’t say without looking at it.

@lanekennington6582 9 месяцев назад

If you look at some videos for bagging an s 10 truck they are pretty similar. it should put you in the ball prk.

@dbaird8784 7 месяцев назад

What is the biggest tire these will lay out with? I want to run a 265 40 22. I believe the tire you use is a 30 series?

@SIMPLE.C10 7 месяцев назад

I wouldn’t run anything bigger than a 255/30/22 on the front. You could run a 265 on the back but clearance is a big factor on anything bigger.

@dbaird8784 7 месяцев назад

@@SIMPLE.C10 I don't think a wheel would last long around here with a tire that small. A 35 series is bad enough on a car in this area with all the oilfield traffic creating potholes.

@simple.c10 Do you need the bump stop on the upper control arm?

@SIMPLE.C10 10 месяцев назад

You can leave it but I remove mine without issue.

@joshopfermann5556 2 года назад

What years of C10 do those Velaworks cups and upper plates work with? Only up to '72 or also with square bodies?

@SIMPLE.C10 2 года назад

I believe the lower cup work with 63-72 and squares since it’s a universal cup. I’m not sure about the upper bracket. I’ll check with Walter at Velaworks.

@nimblybimbly4002 2 года назад

@@SIMPLE.C10 I'm interested to know too. Considering air on my '79 and this looks like a good product.

Where did you get the bag fittings? Also are they the swivel type?

They came in my air ride kit but you can get them from Amazon too. 1/2 inch not to 3/8 push swivel

Hello simple c10, loving your content. Much appreciated for your efforts. Do you have the diameter of that cup/pipe? Kind regards from south africa 🇿🇦 DanPegLegBuilder

How did you remove the bracket for the bump stop on the lower control arm?

@SIMPLE.C10 Год назад

Drilled out the spot welds.

@scottramey4534 Год назад

Sorry, I didn't drill big enough! Went one size bigger with my drill bit and bam! They are off

@hectormontano6957 2 года назад

Will the cpp lower control arms get me as low as cupping stock lower control arms?

@SIMPLE.C10 2 года назад

Yes they will but you have to cut off the bumpstop bracket. I have a video on how I did it. Not hard. If I could do it all over again I would get the ridetech strong arms instead of fabbing the cpp.

@hectormontano6957 2 года назад

@@SIMPLE.C10 when you installed the cpp lower control arm did you have to move lower shock bracket back ,I installed mine just looks like it's towards the wheel more then stock in which would put shock in more of an angle?

@SIMPLE.C10 2 года назад

No I didn’t. I used a drop shock and it worked perfectly.

@bruceisaacs4404 Год назад

So with this install will lay frame? What the biggest wheel I can use to lay frame….

@SIMPLE.C10 Год назад

Go back and watch my bagging on a budget and air ride 101 videos. This will help explain that this setup doesn’t “lay frame”. It gets you as low as you can go on your stock parts. To lay frame you would need to have a drop member, Z the frame, or section the crossmember.
