Flipping leaf springs??
Is it possible/safe to flip my leaf springs upside down after I do my axle flipkit??
So I mean would it be okay to turn the leafs upside down after i do a springunder setup?

Re: Flipping leaf springs??
With the Arc of the springs going in the opposite direction, It should lower the rear even more. Maybe it only makes sense to me... Adobe Illustrator time to draw up what im thinking!

Re: Flipping leaf springs??
So I literally just read that entire thread. Flaming and all. Im glad we all have a bit more class over here at FRF
Thanks, btw. Ive decided that spring under with blocks and a C-Notch is the way I will go. I want static, everything with airbags, compressors, and solenoids scares the crap out of me, because this truck is my DD.
The flipkit, blocks, shocks, and front end kit is the way I will go. AKA - Not flipping the springs...
Thanks again guys!

Exactly. I couldnt afford something to break down on me. And there is just to much opportunity for something to break, or leak, or pop, or whatever. I will keep it static, until someone hands me a new Raptor, which I then would do the full rocker'd body drop, hydro's on all corners, and hell, why not, Id drop a 460 in the Ranger.
Lol, well until that dream becomes a reality, I will keep it simple
