DJM Flip Kits?
Hey,
Are the DJM flip kits any good? I want to leave the front end of my truck like it is, the rear of my truck has 2" shackles right now, but I want it lower.. Will it look goofy or if I put a 5" DJM flip kit on the rear and leave the front stock, or will it look pretty good since the rear sits high stock? Stylin' Trucks has 'em for $60, so I was JW if that would be worth it or not..
Thanks again

Typically a 2WD sits about 2" higher in the rear with stock suspension. If your front springs have sagged a bit that could be 3" or possibly 4" but almost certainly no more than that. A flip kit will have you driving around nose up and looking pretty silly. It will also weaken the chassis where you notch it out for the axle and destroy both your towing and hauling capacity.
