[QUOTE=DirtyLarry;5602837]Thanks MTCK! Yeah, shackle flip for sure but it may need more than a zero rate. I might actually have to throw a lift block in there to make it sit level (I hate blocks but it is what it is). The plan is to do the shackle flip then bolt the tires on with the old axle still in place and let it on the ground to see how low it is compared to the front. From there I can determine if a zero rate block or a lift block will need to be used when I bolt the 14 bolt ff in. We’ll see!

Larry I dont mean to hijack your thread to gain info but i cant message you. I love the way the polar bear looks with the q78s and want that look on my k20, was there a reason you did a shackle flip instead of 6" rear springs? and what is your brand of lift. Thanks for info really enjoy this build thread. You make it look so easy.
