Thanks alot for the comment. It is only 3" drop coils in the front. I will eventually do 2.5 spindles and 1" drop springs. I bought the flip kit used. E-mail me and tell me how many leafs you have in your truck. Mine originally had 4 leafs including the overload and it sat quite a bit lower in the back. One of my buddies has a 5 leaf including the overload. I ended taking his leafs ( he pulled them to drop it) and used 2 in mine. I used the second leaf from the top so I have two of them on each side and also 2 of the 3rd one on each side. I'll take pics so you can see the length of them if you want. So now I have 6 leafs including overload and it sits 100% level. I also had to trim the rubber bumper, but I will put a c-notch in it. E-mail me for any other questions you have.
