Rear-end flip kit
has anyone flipped their rearend and welded another set of leaf spring mounts on the bottom side of the rearend. If so would you post pics. I bought some mounts but want to make sure i got this down.

Re: Rear-end flip kit
Its fixing to get a 4-link on it so thats why they were not welded in. I didnt want to clean more than I had to.

Re: Rear-end flip kit
Cool. Just didn't want a temporary solution to become costly damage.

Re: Rear-end flip kit
Check out this thread, it was a good discussion about rear flips. I posted pics and info on how I did mine in there along with others' info too.

Re: Rear-end flip kit
thanks guys for the pics. I was going to do mine today but i will wait til the weekend when i can do it at a slower more consentrated pace. No need to rush these things it could be a bad situation later. I see the pic I wanted to see and thats how i am going to do mine...just welded on.

Re: Rear-end flip kit
When you get done, be sure and change the fluid. If it "boils" it will break down and you will end up with a whole new issue. Ask me how I know? Did I mention I have a '96 rearend in my truck now, due to premature gear wear
