84 Chevy Shorty

I just finished lifting my new Shorty. I installed a 4in spring lift in the front from Rough Country and a 4in Shakle Flip from Off Road Design. It has 35 Good Year MTR's on Alcoa Rims. I installed a 88 Blazer grille and bumper from a parts truck I have.

Nice. You used the factory springs in the rear with the flip? How much is that kit from ORD??

Gmac, yes I used the factory springs. The kit cost around $185 for the flip kit and another $125 for the heavy duty shackles. I will post pics tonite of the flip kit up close. It rides great and the axle pinion angle is perfect.
www.offroaddesign.com is the website
