axle shifted toward passenger side after flip install...

[drbizerk]

I just flipped my rear axle on a 93 ext cab and it did the same thing....fender almost cut through the sidewall. I think the u bolts aren't getting tight enough because the axle is shifting. Time to figure out a cure, will let you know if I work it out

is it possible your truck was wrecked in the past and something is tweaked?

That's what I'm thinking

I figured it out....the spring perches needed to be welded to the axle (at the correct alignment of course)

Never ran into that problem with a flip kit. Weird. Glad you got it fixed.

....I wasn't aware that the components that I got were from different companies until I had already busted out the plasma cutter. 100% my own fault for not doing more research. On the brighter side of things, I worked it out and it has been working flawlessly. looks good too

could you post a couple of pics?

I'm confused at to why you would have to cut anything other than the frame for a flip kit.

Sounds like he had mixed and matched parts like djm snd beltech. I could see that happening I guess.

 

[drbizerk]

that is exactly what happened

Why would that matter?
