I don't have flip but I am running drop shocks and extenders.

Re: question about lowering?
Pretty sure you do. They can be a pain in the butt, since the shock bolts are close to the leaf pad when flipped. I went with drop shocks when I flipped mine and I'm pretty happy.

Re: question about lowering?
It is best to run the extenders. If you don't the shock is at too much of an angle which causes the to shock barely compress as the rear axle travels up. The shock ends up pivoting more then compressing.

Re: question about lowering?
Ok that makes sense, I was kinda having a lil trouble finding a flip kit that came with the shock extenders as a whole.
