Re: 5" Rear Drop

yeah, some of us have made them in the past. about the exact same amount of drop wether you make them or buy them. i think you also have to drill the hole forward to match on the bottom plate too that your u-bolts go through to clear the bolt n the leaf pack and grind a little excess from the top of the bolt to sit the rear on properply. hope its not confusing you, its simple.

i also thnk the not needing a notch is a crock of sh**. a small notch with a small rubber snubber would do wonders for rear ride quality with a flip.
