Who on the forum has/had bagged their nnbs Tahoe that layed out on its frame? I'm deciding whether to lay it out but want to know how much will I need to modify my rear seats/3rd row seats... If I won't be able to keep my rear/3rd row seatings where they are at, I might just go with the trailblazer as bags in the rear with a kelderman front... The only thing I don't like about keeping my stock fenders intact is that it doesn't get low.

There's a few pics of a black Yukon laying frame. You will lose the 3rd row. That's why I can't do it. I'm going to to try to cut it up as much as I can with out going into the body. Mini c notch and cu up front fenders

I have a friend that has a 08' envoy and said it has the same bag as the tbss...If I eventually decide to lay frame, do you know if going with the tbss bags actually lay it out on the frame with a notch? Do you have the measurement of the bag collapsed and fully extended? Since a spohn kit is a 4 link, would that be good enough to use as a 4-link that is 3/16" thick? With the spohn kit being 1.5" bar and 1/8" thick, will it be able to handle all the abuse?

No it wont lay it out there is a lot of work to do to fully lay these out.
the spohn bars are more than strong enough. If a twin turbo escalade in dubai is running the kit that makes 980 at the wheels and he always racing it around there is no issues and i have sold and ran it on many local trucks including mien no issues.
The tbss bags will lay the axle on the frame but if you want to lay the frame on the floor you will need to do a lot of cutting

I know there's a lot of cutting involved... I just wanted to know if it possible for the tbss bags be able to lay out on its frame with everything all cut... I'll give the spohn kit a try since everything will completely bolt on... It'll save me time fabricating any link bars or rear bag brackets... The only thing I'm concerned about is having the bars bending or breaking while driving my kids around...

Monster notch and redone rear floor along with custom tubs and moving the upper crossmember up 5 inches will be able to lay the truck on the ground with tbss bags.
The bars wont break not sure why your worried about that? They are stronger then stock and 1.50" x .120" wall DOM tubing is not weak
