im leaning towards the shackle flip, but those things are expensive...what about the homade shackle flip with longer shackles? i believe the home made flip gives you 2.5 inches, and i will get longer shackles to level it with the front /forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

I rather spend the $185 for the ORD flip than trying to do the home made version. So that's what I did.

If you have good springs , a shackle flip rides nice and flexes real well. I got over 4 inches for sure, loaded up with trail box and spare shafts and full camping gear I sit level, unloaded on level ground the rear sits ever so slightly higher. It is so simple and effective, I planned ahead and before my lift and have never had a block on my truck /forums/images/graemlins/k5.gif
