What brand flip kit do you have? Shocks?

Mcgaughys 34070 used their shocks and struts and extenders. Getting a lot of bounce around 45 mph. Wondering if I would have went 3 in the front if it would stop

Their shocks are really soft, swap out for Belltech Struts (I have some for $75 each) and Street Performance rear shocks. It'll make a big difference.

So you think the problem is solely the shocks and struts? The front seems fine just the rear bouncing. Also has some driveshaft vibration

You will need the transmission spacer as well. The McG flip kits tend to get the transmissions vibration.

Ordered spacer should be here tomm. Hopefully that helps. Been reading mcgaughys flip was a fixed pinion angle and shouldn't have to be shimmed. You know if that's true or not?
