Need some direction on my flip kit please

Not sure what I did wrong but it does not look right to me. I bought the truck with the Belltech kit already on it just needed some POR15. so some direction would help.

Re: Need some direction on my flip kit please

The flip bracket has an offset hole that lines up with the center pin on the leaf springs, it should be toward the front of the truck. The u-bolt plate should have the same offset hole which also needs to be toward the front of the truck. It looks like your flip bracket is correct but your u-bolt plate is backwards. You need to remove it and spin it 180 and reinstall it.
