So I started on driver side rear flip and the instructions and online say that the axle locater bolt should be put in the rearmost hole of the 2 and fliped upside down, but when I bolt in the back shackle and raise the leaf up when it gets to the center it clearly looks like the bolt should be in the forward hole...but either way raising and dropping I cant see how having it like this is gonna work. What am I doin wrong?

bump? how did u guys do it? Did u bolt the rear 1 up with the hanger and then bring up the leaf off the ground and it met up with the locator hole?

 

sure your axle didn't move while doing the install?

did the kit not come with instructions?

what is your truck?

 

Not sure about this particular kit but I have worked on my rear suspension a number of times and sometimes the locating holes do not line up. Use a pry bar to coax it into place, then be quick the jackhandle and raise the spring pack to lock the locating bolt into the correct hole.

 

I ended up getting it to work. Just waiting for my wheels one of these years and I'll be good to go with this portion!
