DJM 5/5
« on: March 03, 2011, 01:16:03 am »
Does anybody have any reviews or comments on their kit? Comes with spindles, springs, flip kit and shocks. For 30 dollars more I can get the control arms.

I don't think I want to trust the cheap ebay flip kits for 30 bucks! I'd end up with a 3/5 but want to go lower.

if I was to do it over again I would have gotten the control arms, plus you can do your bushings at the same time.

I bought the cheap ebay flipkit(bracket only).  It wasn't too bad.  My buddy decided against it and just bought some trailer leafspring perches and welded them on.  If I had to do it again I would buy the trailer perches and have them welded on at my desired pinion angle.

I wanted a 5/7 drop so I put the money on the 2" shackles and just the lower control arms. I might have to put my stock leafs back in because I have lowering leafs now. I'm fearing a reverse rake with my current set up. If it sits nice and I can take a coil off up front for it to sit even I'll take it off the stock springs and see where I'm at. I'll post the results. Truck running like crap now and working on that but I have the kit and it might be some time for install.
