Re: 1st Gen, K5 DIY4x shackle flip.

Are the blazers different from the pickup?

Re: 1st Gen, K5 DIY4x shackle flip.

Yes, thats why Im selling it.
Pickups seem to have the spring a little farther away from the frame than the Blazers.

Re: 1st Gen, K5 DIY4x shackle flip.

If you take a look at their website, you will see that this style shackle flip uses a shackle that is open on both sides like an old jeep. I like these better than the Chevy style which is open on the spring eye side, but closed on the frame side.

Re: 1st Gen, K5 DIY4x shackle flip.

I sent you a pm and the flip kit looks great my only issue is that one of the four bushings is missing and one of the two rods that goes in the middle of the bushing is also missing.
