DO NOT GET DJM!!!! I thtew a new kit away because i wouldnt pass that trash on to someone else. The design for the adjustable pinion angle is horrible, and the parts used arent strong enough to handle a truck with any real power. Belltech, mcnaughties or build tour own with a grinder, welder and 2new perches.

Djm notch is trash compared to their competition too.

this makes me sound like a djm hater so let me say this. their 3" drop springs on the front of my 01 Silverado did great...their shackle/hangar kit worked great. my 3" drop lower control arms on my s10 work great.

their flip kits suck elephant nuts.

DJM is absolute garbage for their flip kits. I wish i had the money to ditch this piece and buy a real kit.
