Well,I would like to go a little lower with my truck.Right now Ive got the Mcgaupheys 3/5 drop,front is 2in spindles with 1in spring.Rear is flip with the block removed.Im guessing the front would be done with a 2in spring,but Im not sure how to get the rear lower.And Im guessing Im gonna need a cnotch.What do you guys think?

 

The only way to have a 5" drop in the back with a flip kit is by using the rear lift hangers. Replace those with stock hangers and you'll have a 7" drop. A c-notch isn't necessary. Most run helper bags to stiffen the rear up to keep it from bottoming out

 

or just run a stiffer shock and it'll only bottom out on hard bumps or if the bed is full.

 

Ok,thanks Static!What would I need for 6in in the rear?I think 7 might be a little low for a DD.

 

flip kit with the lift hanger set at it's lowest drop setting, using factory shackles

 

I say notch it. I have a 4/7 on my truck and it bottoms out all the time. Well I say all the time but more than I would like it to.

 

looking into the McGaughys 4/7 kit myself.

how did you guys do it with the rear hangers that are not bolted on?

 

I DD on my 4/7. Not that bad.
