I am currently bagging my '64 990H. When my mounts/spacers get back from being laser cut I'll post some pictures. Should hopefully be the end of this coming week.

See these photos:
http://www.rgkustoms.com/rambler/progress/airride/index.html The suspension on your 63 is virtually the same. Bags almost drop right in on the rear, just need some pedestals on the front. Sleeve type bags may work better on the front than the convoluted type shown in the pics. |

Not to sound Ignorant or Cocky, buy my setup is considerably nicer and much more structurally sound than what is shown in that link. I got my plates back today and the front bag's mocked up this afternoon. Hopefully by tomorrow evening I'll have Pictures of the front all roughed in ready to be finish welded and painted.

Well, you DO sound a little cocky, but there's nothing wrong with being proud of your own work.
I'm looking forward to seeing the photos. |

Yes, but that installation looks about as hokey as you can get. |

You think that it looks hokey? Really? How would you do it?

You must think I'm talking about yours. Nothing could be further from the truth. I'm talking about the "kustom" one further back in the thread. |
