you can flip your rear hangers to get about 2" if you want the full 3" then yes you'll need a flip kit and lift shackles

IMO a 2/3 looks better then just flipped hangers in the back...but thats just me...theres a guy that cut his coils and flipped hangers over on rangerpowersports.com with the name 98vortech...if u want to check out his pics, his does look good tho, but to me the back end is kinda high

right on dont mono leaf its not worth it id say 4/5 drop like some people said. cuz it is very addicting and the 4/5 drop is a better stance then a 2/3. trust me i did 2/3 then 3/4 then bagged then the front 7inch drop in the rear now im fully bagged
