Attachment 167003

going to be getting the same kit as op. I have the djm 3 / 5 drop. I want the bags rear of axle on the leaf. Eric is talking about the ones that mount right about the axle where the leaf alignment pins are right? Different or same kit with two mounting locations?

Same kit. you have to drop the axle and pull the pins to add a spacer to put in the lower L bracket so it lines up ok. I'm trying to figure out if I will have enough alignment pin head to put in a 4* shim

I only have one alignment pin with the djm flip kit. This is the slam air kit? Any way or kit that doesn't have to mess with axle pins?

even with only one pin the kit will fit. same procedure but only mess with the one pin. (still need to remove to install the spacer...it's a 2min job.
I had a djm flip and slam air before.

Just ordered this kit! Can't wait to get it installed!

So that alignment pin comes out and gets a spacer then goes right back in reversed with djm? Thx.

How hard was it to get the custom ride hight and bag placement for drilling holes?

bag placement: it come with a alignment tube. (you'll underdstand when you'll see it and read the instruction)

custom height: if you know you to use a tape mesure, you should be good

Let me know if you have any questions once you receive the kit.

Started this install today. Got the bracket and spacers installed, setup the alignment tube and it seems very angled. Center of hub to fender at ride height is 19". The alignment tube nuts are all the way up and if you look hard the lower left bolt hole is not on the frame. Is it supposed to be this angled?? Mcgaughy 4" flip in rear.
