need help on flip kit on 2wd blazer

[82k5blazer]

ok so i bought lowering springs for the front 3' and i did the flip kit in the back but the back sits really low i mean low what would be better to do? take the flip kit off and just put drop shackles?

A flip kit on the rear is usually a 5/6 drop, for the front you'll need drop spindles to bring it down along with the springs

If you only want 4", you need to take out the flip and use a shackle and hanger. Of if you want to keep the 6" rear drop you have now, you would need to use a drop spindle for 2" and a 2" or 3" spring. You would have to experiment a little. With the 6" rear drop, you will probably have to do a C notch in the frame, or the axle will hit on big bumps

You'll definitely need spindles to get anywhere close to level. Mine is 3" spindles, Moog 6102's and a flip. My flip sat too low also. I flipped my rear hanger so the shackle points down. It took about 1 1/2 inches out of my drop. Has about 1"-1 1/2" of rake front to rear.

i lowered mine 5" in the front and to match it in the rear i put in 2" shackles,removed the 1" spacer under the leafs and removed the overloads-it turned out good.
