Hope I don't have these issues going with a belltech 3/5. Transmission spacers and 6* shims are included. NNBS ExtCab.

 

must be common with DJM flip kits?

I have a 4/5 flip on the CC and have been to 2 places to get the shaft angle corrected.

The last place the guy said any more twist down & the driveshaft would need to be shortened because it was pushing forward into the tranny has he pulled down on the rear end.

I still have a slight vibration when stepping on it between 40-55ish. Those damn DJM flip kits are supposed to have the angle already, that's why they don't send shims (so it said in the kit instructions)

 

Mcg, Belltech are a cup style flip kit. The DJM (well the new style for my truck) is an adjustable clamp style. Imho its a poor design. It should have been a solid weld with good metal not stitch welded and cheap metal. As "cheap" as i call it...when you tighten the 2 bolts down it draws the top plate into the rearend and the "cup" into the axle. I see they put a "gusset" but that helps none. If it was me i would have made it out of some 4130 or thicker plate atleast.


As for the reason behind me wanting to do a new perch is because i dont like the idea of running 4*+ shims

Im going to bring my truck to a 4wd shop by my house that builds off the wall custom suspension. I know its not a drag racing shop but its the only option i have in the next 2 weeks unless i take off to go to Orange, Tx to see madman

 

Imma order these and look into having them installed.

 

Same as stock and half the price:

Keniff I know the feeling u have I was having the problem with mine. tried everything to get the vibration I had fixed I normally got shakes at about 70-80 they faded away. Well after I put my 17s back on I have no vibration at All. you could possible having same wheel tire issues I had... Just a thought.

 

just shim it?

4 link it.

 

nah shims are out of the question. i already had 4* in there and was fighting the vibration though.


if i did that it'd not be a stock suspenion truck anymore



im dropping my truck off to a custom 4wd place next month for new leaf perches, pinion angle adjusted. ill be sure to take pics of the DJM flip kit for yall.

 

that may be true, but you wouldn't have to worry about blowing through the tires.
