sorry man ur going to have to explian the ake, i beam. lcm, all that shit lol. i think i no the djm. but anyway iv found one for like 5 something but all it showed was coil springs..i got leaf springs in the back..it said it came with a flip kit..im guessing thats for the leaf springs? how does that work? thanks

Right now your rear axle sits under the leaf springs. The flip kit places the axle above the springs, thus lowering the rear of the truck the thickness of the rear axle. Make sense? Take a look at an Explorer as they have the springs under the axle.

Summit Racing sells lowering kits. 3" front and 4" back. Thats where I got mine from. If the rear is too low for you, you can put on lift shackles to raise it up an inch or so.
