I wondered as well. My thought on my 3/4 ton was do the flip kit & relocate the rear shackle bracket down the appropriate amount for about a 6-7" drop vs. ~8".
Popping in a lift shackle sure would be easier

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
