can i just flip the rear leafs with the factory ones that are on there?

 

to do the rear end flip... you need the flip kit..BUT
.
on some ranger there is a bar ( small and kinda thin) that kinda follows the rear end and its connected the the axle.
where the bar connects to the axle, there is a plate that u can use for a home made flip kit.. but u have to weld it the axle vary carefully.. we did this to a bud of mine ranger back like 5 yrs. back and its still going today.
i can get pic. of what im talking about if u need them or want a more info.

 

Yeah just buy a flipkit its like 50 bucks.

to much of a hasle to go rewelding the perches and stuff when you can buy a flipkit which does the same thing for $50 bucks.

 

Don't you have to weld the perches in the flip kit, anyway? What all is in the flip kit?

 

yeah, wat is in the flip kit, an where can i get it for 50 bucks, all i can find are like 150 or more,

 

just new " u " bolts and 2 peices of fab. metal.. you know where the axle meets with the rear leaf springs.. it sits in a "c " like holder. its that peice of metal that you will get.... well the one i saw was just that .. and i would like to know where i can get a flip kit for 150 or even 50.. i see people spending oveer 500 on flip kits

 

yeah i know wat ur talkin bout, the mechanics next door to me said thats all i would need, then i could jus use the factory leafs,

 

500$ flip kit??? wow, ur gettin screwed..

 

Me thinks some times you don't know what you're talking about *scratches head*



IF someone is paying $500 for this:

They are beyond stupid.

Its $60 bucks my bad. Unless you go with the 3 inch one with the lifting shackles thats more like a $110 because it comes with bigger shackles to lift it up to 3 inches.

And there is no welding or messing with the perches when installing a flipkit all it does it basically put the axle onto of the leafs.

 

that stylin concepts website said that the flip kit does not fit edge models, i have a edge, where are they?

 

only difference is edge have blocks, just remove them and put the flipkit on. styling doesnt know what they are talking about if its not a chevy.
