like the title says, i have a lowered screw and i want to get some helper bags for when i haul my bikes. i noticed that every application (ride-rite 2350) says not for harley or fx2 model f150's. is this because of the lowered suspension? if so, is there an accessory for lowered trucks?

 

24 views and no replies? someone has gotta have a lowered f150 and bags...

 

no one???

 

1.Welcome to the site
2.The Street Scene Forum is where the lowered trucks post
3.Details on your suspension are needed to answer your question

 

the fx2 and harleys come with a 1" lift block. Depending on your setup (which you havent posted about) those bags may or maynot be what you need

 

ah ic. sorry bout that... i have eibach springs and struts in the front 2" and a 3" shackle drop in the rear. i didnt like the overly flat or leveled look so i added a 1" AAL in the rear. it's up a little more than the front which i like.

i was wondering if the added load on the bags (since it was lowered) would damage the bags or if the lowered height is even enough to clear.

 

So when it's all said and done, you have a 2/2 drop. I don't think you need helper bags for the load you will have.

 

i have 23" saleens and when i haul my bikes (2 supermotos) i get an occassional scrape at the fender wells. i replaced my rear shocks but i still do on the highways (crappy bay area fwys).

 

Go with a bigger, longer bump stop.

 

why do you have a 3" shackle and a 1" AAL?

why not go to a 2" shackle and sell the 3"?

 

i should have.... come to think of it. i bought the truck lowered from the dealer. when i loaded it up with my bikes i realized it was a little too low so i added the AAL. i'm actually going to sell the AAL's once i put the air ride on.
