new look for blue... rims, tires, and 4/6 drop

I'll have to go look at the part number. I've already forgotten, lol.
I'll be anxious to see how your 29.5's fit. Cause mine didn't at all with the 6.5" backspace. I had about 1/16" of clearance between the leaf and still would have had to roll the fender.

thanks again everyone!
what kind of problems you had with the kit or you don't like? yes the bars are sitting parallel to the ground. it dead hooked yesterday with the 75 shot coming on at 2800.
thanks Stew. i plan on getting that kit but i was talking about the part number for the shocks.
thank you. no, just lower ones.
thank you Carlos. i haven't measured it, just kept the 2.5* or 3* shims i already had on it.

just a poor design IMO. the notch is crap compared to others that i have seen, the bottom piece that lays on the spring is not flat at all, i bent the upper brackets with the bolts and dont think i put too much torque on them at all. im really just not wild aboutt he design and the weight. im guna weld on some new spring perches and drop 20 lbs and get the pinion angle i want and not worry about stuff moving.

i know. i was following your build and seen you couldn't make them fit. i took some measurements and i figured it would work. i have exactly 1" clearance between the inner sidewall and the leafspring. i'm guessing the extra half inch in rim width with the same backspacing as you helped me.
i understand what you are saying now. i bent the upper bracket also. just had to realign it a while ago while putting back my street tires on. they had shifted and the pin was off on the hole.

here is a better quality flip kit for 13$
