flipping balljoints?

is there any way to flip the balljoints on the C10s to lower it, and if so, what all is involved in doing that to the suspension, as i have some idea in my mind of what a balljoint flip is, but not certain

can't be done due to the fact the balljoints and spindle holes are tapered

Yeah, its only done on import mini's to get around 2-3" of drop.

With your truck, you can lay with your stock a-arms, but i'd wait for the ART tubulars and get them, they'll have the corrected angle in them. Or you can cut yours off and reangle them ,its what a lot of ppl do. I just wouldnt.
