Not sure if guys are putting shocks on front w/ the bags. You may want to check out Fatman or Heidt configurations to get an idea. However, SamFear sent me a link to a LowRider Magazine article about bagging a Chevy. Here's the link - there are 3 articles, one on bagging the front, one on notching the rear and installing bags and plumbing. Of course, you probably already have all this done by now since "A man can do anything with a little time, some 2 stroke mix and a chainsaw." But it may help you out.
