Woah woah woah... No details? That truck is sick. I'm digging the look of the roof rack on the low truck. So much going on, but tastefully done. Very nice truck..

Hard to stop staring! Great lookin rides.
Anyone have a link to a previous thread or can advise on best mfr package or parts list to flip and c-notch the rear of my 05 RC? Have Calmax 3" arms and 1"springs for front, looking for 5-6" in back and can't decide.

If you buy mcgaughys flip kit and c notch combo, it's about $450 from their site I think.

I'm pretty sure and Rc rear end is flipped already. Only the QC's require a flip kit
Look at blocks, different leaf spring packs and a c notch . Post up a picture of the rear end set up

Srt trucks came flipped, but regular trucks, both reg cab and qc, had leaf over axle setups.

Yup, leaf over axle here. Got Calmax 3" arms for front, ordering McGs 6" deluxe rear. Forgot my leafs are warped (400tq, removed a leaf, sticky tires...not well thought out) and need new set. Any ideas on replacement leafs, stock, special, matter? 20yrs of dodge trucks, never had to buy leafs.

Thank you, I was just going off the srt trucks I have owned.
On my QC I went with a western chassis rear flip kit. It worked with no issues and I used there universal c notch kit.(weld in) both out the door for less than 200$

that thing back on the road yet?
Nope I’m basically rebuilding this truck.
New 15k motor,
New Paint,
New suspension,
New fuel system
New wiring system with Holly EFI
New transmission that needs a lot of custom work done to it
So basically I’m close to 30k into this build and it won’t be done for another 4 month easily. I took time off from this truck during the holidays. I’ll start back up next week.
I’m ready to have her back but getting annoyed with all the money I have spent on her. It will be worth it at the end with a 750hp all motor truck cruising down the road.

Then I need to get rid of these 22s up front because I need more narrow wheels due to the suspension
