more axle clearence on a 98
I flipped the axle on my 98 x-cab and used a western chassie c-notch. With the stock urathane bumpstop that came with the c-notch I had 1-2.5" of travel. Even after cutting down the bumpstop as much as I could I only have 3-4". I hit the stops on hard speedbumps. How do I get more travel?

There's no shortcut here. If you're hitting, you either raise the truck or you clearance what's hitting.

Re: more axle clearence on a 98
i did a flip kit on my 96 from belltech but i bought mine used but it came with an air ride setup that bolted to the back portion to the notch well with shackles,hanger and 2 leafs left im glad i got that because when i air it out it hits the bottom of the bed floor but i have to cut the rib for more clearance but when i did just 2 leafs i would bottom out so i went about bought me some air shocks and that kind helped some
