fullsize shackel flip

[lilzuki]

in doing a rear shackle flip. would it be wise to drop the front mount on the rear spring? to correct for pushing the rear of the spring so far down. to give it more of a stock geometry?? i have the whole truck torn apart so access isnt a factor

Most people don't, I didn't... Hasn't been an issue...

What kind of a rig???

95 burb cummins swap and SFA gonna do some towing with it nothing really heavy a samuri or a 20 foot river sled

Are you using a kit or the rear spring front hangers off of another rig???

 

[lilzuki]

got the kit from ORD the bracket and the hd shackle. just figured since the truck is apart it would be easy to do. that is if it would make a difference. and by doing this it would keep the axle centered in the wheel well with out the need of a offset block

Nice kit... I designed my shackles based off theirs when I built them... I used OEM hangers for the flip though... Lots of info on pirate and ck5... Post up some pics when you're done...
