*SOLD*DIY4x Flip 'n Switch & BWP 6.5" cross-tied shackles

[mrk5]

I have a DIY4x Flip 'n Switch for sale. The application is for a 1-ton. Used it for about 9 months and decided I need to drop back to a 2.5" flip.

Bushings and mounting hardware included. I'd like $120+shipping *SOLD*




These are shackles made by Black Widow Performance. They were going to be a new style, and I don't know if anyone else got them besides me. They are 6.5" center of hole to center of hole and crosstied. 3/8" plate.

Custom hand-painted spiders by my wife. I'd like $60+shipping.

Package deal $150+shipping.*SOLD*

The only thing I don't have to offer are the spring eye bolts. I can include 4 new 9/16" grade 8 bolts, 4 new grade C locknuts, and 8 flat washers. Additional cost would be $12.

Just to be clear the flip 'n switch will only work on a 1-ton truck. I had them on my K5 because I had custom front hangers that were closer to the frame by 1" and this lines up with 1-ton width spring perches.

The 1-ton suspension has the springs about 1" closer to the frame to match the narrower spring perch placement.

Do you know of anyone who has run these on a dually?

 

[mrk5]

You mean shackle flips in general?

 

[clarkjw24]

Yeah. I guess it gets into the debate on towing capacity. Not sure if I want to go this way on the dually. I'm looking for a sales pitch lol

After reading this thread http://coloradok5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=109935&page=2&highlight=shackle+flip+towing I never worried about towing.

so how much lift will this give?

 

[mrk5]

Should be right about 4". It's hard for me to say for sure.

I have 52" springs up front with all the leaves installed. That's supposed to net about 4" of lift.

I had these installed in the rear with 56s and a zero-rate. I pulled one leaf out of the 56" pack I have. The rear set about 1"-1.5" taller that the front. So without a zero-rate I should have been just a little over the 4" lift in the front.

So it should give a solid 4"+ of lift depending on your exact setup.

Willing to trade just the shackle flip for my set of 8-lug outers, straight up?
