Re: looking for 4/6 drop flip kit

So, I've talked with Charleys Drop Shop in Portland, OR. He said there is absolutely nothing wrong with a flip kit for these trucks as long as u C Notch the frame. I was going to convert my leafs to Coils with ECE's kit. The price from ECE to lower the pickup 4/6 with the coil changeover was $1432 before freight. Charley talked me into leavin my leafs in the rear. He said it's a "Myth" about coils riding better than leafs when lowered. U just have to lower it "Correctly". Meaning C Notching the frame, flipping the leafs, and installing a new HD rear sway bar. I was quoted $1500 for 2-1/2" drop spindles, 1-1/2" drop coils, new HD sway bar, and KYB shocks up front. Flipping the leafs, c notching the frame, installing a new HD sway bar, and KYB shocks out back. That includes him doing all the work as well!!!! I thought that was perfectly reasonable.....
