Flipping the bottom leaf spring, is this good? I recently bought a lifted toyota, and the bottom leaf springs are flipped upside. Now I've heard this is good in lowered trucks with traction issues to increase traction. I'm not sure if this is true or not. But is this good for a lifted truck? It looks like it might be taking away from lift some.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

 

Lowered, yes it is good because it takes away from the curvature of the spring pack thereby letting it sag a little.

Lifted, not good, flip it back around.

 

You can get a shackle flip, but I would defnitely not flip the spring itself.

 

Sweet, I figured the prior owner didn't know what he was doing. Hopefully it rides better 'cause bumps feel like shit right now.

Thanks guys.

 

Back in the game Nick?

 

Oh yes sir. I gotta stop by to let you check her out.

...and we need another "outing"

 

Yea. Before I decide to clean her up.

 

the bottom springs aren't fliped, it came like that from TRD man. Also just so you know it rides rough because it has add a leafs in the rear. It never rode that rough before the extra leaf was put on it.

 

well there you go.

 

its probably just the overload spring. I flipped the overloads on my jeep and its fine.
