the way the spring reacts in the stock shackle swing handles the load far better than flipping the shackle into a compression setup,with a flip it compresses easier and effectively makes for a softer spring rate, you get a ton more flex with a shackle flip and it gets even better if you use a longer shackle.

i have a stock rear spring with a 4" block and a shackle flip with longer shackle, i have so much flex that if i take off my shocks i can get to the end of the rti ramp, my shocks are my limiter as they do not have enough range, they are the 2nd longest ones bds makes.

What do you think about using the shackle flip for a better ride and using air bags for towing?

I think that's what I'm gonna try on my 94. If I'm high enough to need a shackle flip.
