Will I have to install a flip kit if I 4 link rearend? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 72 GMC and want to go 4 link. Will I need to also install a flip kit? I don't think I will because I will be getting rid of the leaf springs. I guess I should just call www.***************** and talk to them. Just trying to get some info from the guys who have a GMC with leafs that have converted over to a 4 link. Anyone have pics of such projects?

No you would be wasting your money if you are going to four link it.

You will not be using the mounts or the leafs
