Bagged

A "bagged" vehicle is when some of the suspension components have been replaced with airbags, which allows for air to make them larger, or the release of air to make them smaller, thus allowing a vehicle to go up and down vertically. Here is a picture of what a truck looks like when its laid out:

To get to the stage of this Dodge Ram posted above includes some very major and custom fabrication work. Moving the gas tank, hacking up the frame, relocating the battery, cutting out the inner fender wells, and relocating the battery, just to name a few modifications.

Here's a picture of the previously pictured white Dodge Ram's "Step Notch." Which is where the frame is bridged over the differential(not shown) allowing the body and frame to go lower and touch the ground. Because of this notch, the truck bed also needs to be cut up to allow for the clearance of this new notch and to make room for the differential, also the fender wells need to be cut so they don't block the tires clearance. Also, to provide the air in the airbags, there needs to be compressors built in and many feet of air hose so that there is a proper supply of air allowing the vehicle to air up and down quickly. What controls the ride height? A series of switches that are located inside the cab within the drivers reach. There is extensive amounts of work into this 1995 Dodge Ram, Click here to see a more pictures on this truck and more information on this show stopper

Below is an example of what a bagged truck looks like on air:



1. How can a video support textual information?
The writer can explain something, then give an example of their information

2. What purpose do videos, pictures, and/or podcasts serve in a blog post?
Gives the reader a break from reading the text. They make the blog post more appealing.

3. How is embedding a link/video different from attaching a link to a post?
You need to get the embedding code instead of just linking something to the URL.
