i dont see why cups wont work. see if the coils are the same dia as a s10 spring. if so id use cups. not the cheap-o ones but the ones you bolt in place. keep that bag in place., i can make you a set, im located in tn , pm me if your intrested

im 99% sure that no bag will fit in the spring pocket ( sleeves dont count :) ) further more im pretty sure theres no room for a bag until u cut it out and space the bag back into the frame ( they sit to close to the spindle)
cutting the front pocket out and goin with a torision bar type mount is your best bet.

as you can see very small pocket and far too low mounted to lay on any kind of large wheel
