    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    Anyone with a 3rd gen done shackle flips? I have Dakars with overload removed and non-extended ICONS back there now. But I need a little more height. I was planning to put the overload back in along with the OME AAL and a U-bolt flip kit.

    What are the pros and cons of shackle flips? I'm thinking it will give me a little more height without stiffening the springs like the AAL. And not as much to hit on stuff as the factory hangers. But the kit I'm looking at is $300. Thats about 5 times the cost of the AAL.
