flip kits for a 71?
Hey guy's I was wondering if they make flip kits for a 71 frame. I have heard of DJM and others that make kits but I can't find anything in print about pre 73 stuff. Summit doesn't even list it as an option. I'm one of the lucky ones that has leafs (not!), Just trying to find an alternitive to buying drop leafs.
Thanks in advance

Re: flip kits for a 71?
a 73-up flip kit will work on your truck, but u can't use the 73-up c-notch. you'll need to get a 67-72 notch unless u make your own c-notch.
