Still can't see the flip pic. So what did you do to lower the front?

flip bracket. This may be cheaper than going the route of the typical flip kit. comes with a few other items, but here is the heart of it. Very simple. The only thing you have to do to make these work is drill a hole in your stock square bracket that your U-bolts go though.

I used the same bracket on my 84 GMC and lowering my Astro van.

I have a pic of it installed in the Astro, it works the same either way.

It looks like the front has been lowered in the before and after pics. I was just wondering how it was done. Mine looks about the same but I have a 3" spindle.
