I will be running 8" skyjackers up front on the Burb later this summer. To match it, I'm going to be using an ORD 4" shackle flip w/Skyjacker 4" lift 56" rear springs. I'm also going to be using ORD's 6.0 super shackles out back. Will I need to turn the shackles outward for the additional length of the 56's over the factory 52's or will they be fine mounted in the factory direction?
 
You just need to swap the flip kit brackets around to change from 52" to 56" (bushing location toward the back for 56"). The shackles should go in normal direction.
 
Or use the second set of holes in the sub's frame. Don't know if there's a benefit with either.
 
Just make sure the bushing on the flip is towards the rear bumper in the stock mounting holes. You will love having the 56's in back. Worked really well on mine.
