Flip Kit?
How does a flip kit work? If you place the axle above the springs then what do you do about the spring mountplate thats welded onto the axletube? I see kits with just blocks and U bolts... How do you install these correctly?
Or better yet, does anyone know of an install website with pictures for this kind of stuff? |

I'm thinking of doing the same thing. Take a look at www.djmsuspension.com There you can look at the installation instructions for a 73-87 truck. I'm just not sure if I will have to remove the bed or do any welding. I also noticed that they are selling them for about $130 which is a good price considering ECE wants $350 for drop leafs. Good Luck!! Maybe we can work thru this together. What year truck are you working on anyway?

Thanks for the link! That helped. Apparently, I have not been looking at complete kits. The DJM included parts similar to what I thought I would need to do a "flip"...
I'm working on a 83 C15. |
