Worst case, the flip kit is too low and you're out $100 or so and you sell the kit.

Yeah, I think that's the rationale I'm leaning towards. Can start with a flip kit, which is entirely reversible and a fraction of the cost of the drop leafs. I'm working on the front end now with drop spindles and drop coils so once I finish that, I'll see how it sits and make a decision on the rear. Seems like everyone that has a GMC has to go through this decision on the rear suspension!
