    Probably not. My bed it pretty full on our camping trips. Cutting large holes for the shocks probably wouldnt help the load capacity of the plastic bed either. The more you mod these things the less truck they are.

    Give it time. If I remember your first post correctly you were just going to do a few small mods.

    What do you know about shackle flips and load carrying capacity.

    I'm kinda in the same boat, I have Jerry's relocate kit and 12" Kings on their way, so I was thinking about shackle flipping to achieve that epic droop. But at the same time, like you, I carry a ton of shit in the bed, and lots of weight off the rear bumper. I don't want droopy butt...

    I'm leaning towards the shackle flip even if my but droops. Travis(basik biker) has the setup with his bamf relocation. I'm going to check out his rig with wieght first.

    Not enough

    I'll be keeping an eye on this too then. I already have BAMF relocation sitting here, just can't decide if I want to flip the shackles or not. I tow my quad trailer with 2-3 quads regularly and the bed full of shat. I don't want to order shocks till I decide on flipping or not to ensure the correct measurements on shocks.

    I don't think youll really loose much carrying capacity, especially if you have a beefier spring pack like you do. mine squats about the same with a dirtbike in the back before I flipped em and I just have the standard allpro packs not the expos.....next time we wheel together we can load my bed up with shit if u want. anddd I got all the bump can sleeves leaf plates, and steel to mount air bumps in the back, just need to buy the bumps fox2.0 3" stroke

    your shock size wont change...unless you plan on lifting it with longer shackles

    Excuse my ignorance but wouldn't a shackle flip end up netting you the same geometry as a first gen? Yours flip up if I remember correctly rather than hanging down...

    I bet its similar, the problem with them inverted as the spring droops the shackle isn't allowed to swing as much and actually binds at full droop. with them conventional( like your truck, the spring is allowed more movement, the suspension cycles better cause the shackle has a lot more range of motion and swing. I did it, and gained about 2 ish inches of droop
