    Hey all
    I bought a set of firestone riderites and a pair of daystar cradles to help level out the truck when I'm hauling all my gear for camping and road trips. The rear is sitting a bit lower now with the high clearance rear with dual swingouts along with the roof rack etc.

    I discovered today that the all pro u-bolt flip kits make it impossible to install the firestone riderite brackets and am at a loss of ideas to make this setup work. The u-bolts are too long and the hardware/plate themselves are too tall. As seen in the photo below (sorry about the mud... I was about to wash it off to do the install and noticed it wouldn't work)

    I was wondering if anyone else had any experience with running a u-bolt flip kit and the firestone riderites?

    Current Suspension Setup for the rear:
    OME Dakar Leaf Packs CS047R
    King Shocks Dakar Spec
    All Pro Off Road U-bolt Flip Kit with Timbren Bumpstop
