hey man ive owned alot of bagged trucks and if you have a brain you will not bag a 2010 navigator. the only way that thing will lay out is on some 17s with 35 series tires. if you go any bigger, you gotta notch the frame, but your floor in the rear and tub it. plus cut the front fenders and relocate everything. and if you go bigger then a 20 your gonna cut your firewall also. plus if you bag that thing it wont be worth shit. i loved bagged trucks im a minitrucker til i die. but i would never bag my expo. one of my best friends owns justplaintrick out here in az and there is a newer f150 that he cut up and laid out on 24s and i think this guy is 20k in the hole just at the shop. just clean it up and put wheels on it. and enjoy knowing you can drive it anywhere, anytime. and yes it is very bad to drive with the rear bags empty. that means every bump you hit your suspension is bottoming out. your gonna wear out every suspension component fast doing that.

I already told him that, to eachs own

lybia is jumping off i think i need to re-enlist! get some more trigger time.... thanks bh for bringing back my motivation i once thought was dead

Only re-enlist right now if you "truly" want trigger time. There's no such thing as a REMF any more. Even clerks are getting in on the fray. I deployed out a few years ago as a JAG ROE adviser and was meant to be in an office in Kabul giving advise to the command on ROE, but found myself attached to an Embedded Training Team in the middle of Bumble F*** nowhere leading poorly trained ANA on combat missions they / we had no place going on....My advise...stay home and enjoy your Expy!!!

Anyways I wasn't really motivated to do anything to the truck at the moment, but yesterday I aired out the rear bags and it was slightly tucking the stock 20s! So now I have motivation to get the front bags installed. I'm going to Hack Shack in garland to get a quote then from there to status in rockwall.

Also looking for some new rims... Anybody know where is the best prices for the KMC Slide, and the Menzori Absolute? Anyone recommend any other wheels? DO NOT WANT TO DO U2 55s OR THE BOSS 330s

Okay guys I bent my 24s! X( I was driving home at like 5 in the morning and fell asleep doing 40. I went to my local wheel repair shop and they said they'd fix and powder coat them for $400 even. So I guess I'm doing them red!

I found some belltech springs locally for $100 for all four. I'm going to pick them up and install just the fronts and deflate the rear bags to see how it rides... If I don't like I'll just sell them.

The only mods I've done since my last post is I debadged the tailgate and did the rear wiper blade delete mod.

You know we pulled out of the Korengal a couple years ago. Nasty place I know you had it rough. I was in Gardez at a filthy little FOB but nothing like the korengal. Hooah WHOISMOOTOO.
