My new to me truck is lifted. I don't like the way it sits, so the rear needs to come up.

Looks like there is a block with a triangle on it for a bumpstop type setup, and then another block directly below it, I don't like the blocks at all

Looking to maybe a 6 or 8" lift spring? Any suggestions? would I need to rotate the pinion angle?




EDIT: I have decided I want to remove the bumpstop block, and the lift block. I want to go with a 6" lift spring, if it isn't enough, I will add an add a leaf later on, yes, it may make it stiffer, but oh well.

as for the pinion angle, it is actually fine right now, I have looked at it, and my tcase is lowered, so pinion angle is good

where can I get springs?

 

Anyone?

 

I would go to a suspension shop and inquire.

 

looking like I am going to get some 6" lift Skyjacker Softride springs

 

has anyone done a shackle reversal kit on the rear?

is it possible to do on the 97-03? if yes, where can I get one?

 

Over on pirate, users said that I shouldn't do a shackle flip as it would ride like poop.

What say this forum?

 

I think I am just going to try and get lift springs. Like 6" then maybe custom fab some bump stops

 

If it’s leaf springs your needing either one leaf or set there are a couple of companies in Kansas City that can steer you in the right direction . They even build custom order spring pack assemblies. Here’s a couple links.
