Yes. If you have access to the brackets (is the bed off now?) It is worth the effort, especially if you're going to replace the TA bushings.

Flipping the brackets will make the truck 'think' its only lowered 2, maybe 3 inches. It also seems to help with lateral geometry and flex. I have personal experience with it and I'd do it again, absolutely.

How do you plan on achieving the 6" drop? All spring, or maybe a combination of drop springs, + a lowering block?
