Was talking with a buddy & telling him everything i have for my drop(2/4.5 Mcgaughys kit, springs & flip kit,belltech nitro drop 2's shocks front/back & hellwig rear sway bar)
He was saying i should look into getting drop leaf springs, has anybody bought them & used them with the flip kit?? He was saying if i go with the stock leafs since there going under the axle now that it might ride a lil rough. Does anybody have any complaints about just using the flip kit with Stock leafs? I know that the shocks im using will take away alot of te rough ride

That shackle is gonna be massive, because the drop leaf drops you 3 inches. A flip kit will drop you about 5. Just the flip kit.

I've never heard of negative feedback about a normal drop.
