well i was going to weld on perches on my axle with my old 52's and echobit style flip. i got a diy4x shackle flip now and while im at it im thinking of going with 56's. is the flex that much better on the rear? and what shackle length do yall normally run with that setup? and if i upgrade to 56's will i have to move my front mount or will it just push my axle 4 inches back?
 
Not sure on the difference between 52 and 56, but all you have to do is swap the flip kit from side to side and install the 56's no mount moving at all. If you install them long side forward the axle will stay in the same place. If you flip them around then it will push the rear back 4". I am running 7" shackles on mine right now, but 6 would have been fine too. My 56's are really flat so i went with the longer shackles to try and get a little lift back.
