Re: Flip Kit???
73-87 trucks have wider leaf springs.
DJM makes a flip kit for 67-72 trucks.

Re: Flip Kit???
After installing the DJM flip kit I wouldn't want to try to peice it together. The axle locators are a LOT more elaborate than any of the 73+ axle saddles I've seen on eBay etc. I will post some pics when I get home next week but it was worth every bit if the $130 I spent at Summit for it. You can save money by using stock front shocks on the rear after the flip and relocating the upper mounts by drilling the stock bracket.
