Re: Shackle flip kit?

I talked with Kurt the owner of DIY4X and asked about the movement. He told me it moves the axle approximately 1/4 of an inch forward. I have not noticed it at all. I do have mud flaps mounted on the back wheel openings which might be why? My father also has not noticed the forward movement compared to other truck pictures online. With smaller tires it might have been noticeable

I am not using an ez inch or zero rate. may add one at some point to put alittle rake on it tho.

My drive shaft angle is perfect. No Tcase drop was needed

It sits level and has a decent shackle angle. I don't have any unloaded bed pictures tho.
