I posted a little while ago about puttin blocks in the rear of my truck to level it with the front. I was told by a couple members to get add a leafs and the 2.5 block. Well stupid me I went ahead and bought a damn 5" block and now I have axle wrap.

How can I fix this?

 

Install traction bars FTW!

 

I thought about that but I've been told by many many people that traction bars are only a temporary fix. I know that sounds stupid since there are thousands of people that have traction bars. I was thinking about puttin the 2.5" block back and getting a 2.5" add a leaf. Do u think that would alleviate my axle wrap?

I appreciate your quick response by the way

 

I do believe that it would.

 

Or do a shackle flip that's an easy 4 inch lift if u have the tools

 

How exactly do you do a shackle flip? And will it make the truck ride like crap like some people claim add a leafs do?

I appreciate yalls quick responses

 

All a shackle flip does is flips the shackle upside down so it actually gets better travel but to do it u just would grind off the factory rivets and flip the mount over and weld it back on or drill new hole if u have too but basically you would have to figure out where it would need to mount might be the same location. Otherwise DIY4X ruffstuffspecialties.com and sky manufacturing are a few companies that make aftermarket kits. I have heard they will ride much better because they don't alter the springs at all like a add a leaf does you would also need shocks I would have done this to my truck but I wanted different leaf springs instead then ended up not needing a shackle flip

 

And that would give me around 4"? That would be great.

 

Ya it would just gotta figure out what u want to use factory mount or aftermarket then get better shackles and u can adjust the length accordingly

 

What is axle wrap
