gear ratio and yes the leafs

 

i just want to put the rear end above the leaf springs when i put it back in.. is that possible without having to buy a kit

 

You can make your own flip kit if you can weld good. If you buy a flip kit they are made to bolt in..

 

you cannot just flip what you have and lower gears most ppl go higher with the gears...what gears do you have and what are you putting in more info would help us out alot.....your better off buying a flip unless you know how to make one.....

 

hey guys, ive been in GA for MOB training all last week and ill be here all next week. just droppin in to say hi... and i just skimmed the last few pages. a lil tip... if you do a flip kit, it would be a good idea to get a airbag helper spring kit. if you flip the rear end you cut out 3.5'' of suspension travel and if you plan on haulin anything, you would need one so you dont bottom out on everything

 

take it easy ken. be safe bud

 

Another ?.. do the drop shackles you buy at like auto zone work on our trucks

 

my lowered ram is in the sig...sold it awhile ago, but damnit it's still mine lol

 

I got my rear flipped, took 2hrs but it was my first time. I did without the shackles but it was too low, and my wife had to use the truck so this morning, 30 outside and I swapped the stock shackles out so it raised it up a bit. Here's the deal, I have to swap the front coils out this weekend. They unbolt, and easily drop out when the tires are dangling and the frames on stands, nothings going to shoot out because they are of course underload inside the struts, right? Never done a strut but need to know I'm right and not wrong. I'll the a strut compressor.

 

our trucks do not have struts. shocks and springs. and the springs ARE under tension so please be careful. if you google dodge lift kit instructions you will find write ups to removing the stock stuff. then proceed with your lowering install. BE CAREFUL
