chevy shackle flip

[iamsparticus]

But if you have blocks it makes the effect amplified with the shackle flip combined. I did a custom shackle flip on my buddies dodge 2500 and with the blocks it would change the angle such that the axle moved forward

Not impossible!!!

Many, I repeat Many lift blocks have the holes offset to move the axle forward and are also tapered to roll the pinion up. The only way I got everything right with mine was to put my blocks in backwards.

i didnt know they made tapered blocks my are not tapered at all they are square. I would imagine a tapered block is even more likely to shoot out when wheeling.

 

[orange-crush]

is your buddy with the dodge happen to be brandon?

 

[iamsparticus]

Yes he is, Do you know him? we ended up butting a mild block that was not tapered in

ya haha i met him randomly driving my truck blew a little smoke at him and been friends since haha

 

[iamsparticus]

Thats funny yeah he's one of my best friends i hope he blew it right back and i could almost promise he did

I'd try ditching the blocks and throwing in a zero rate. It will give 1" of lift, but you can shift the axle 1" or 1.5" either direction.

I had "legal" issues on my Dodge, but all I did was throw small ass tires on it and got things straightened out, then put the 38's back on.

haha ya he sure did back then his truck was faster he blew right past me haha tell him to buy my 40 inch tires lol

when i first did my lift i did the four inch shackle flip from ord. Now after several tickets im lowering my truck and need the stock chevy shackle brackets that come riveted to the frame. Does anyone know where i could find some asap so i can get my truck back on the road. I know i can get them from pick and pull it would just be impossible to remove them because they are riveted on stock

Get some stock rims and tires and then check ur height

darn i would leave the shackle flip if i could find a way so that my axle is not shoved way forward

Diy4x.com has a u bolt kit I think might solve this problem of yours. Check it out
