Is there a thread somewhere that explains how to do the axle flip? thx

[66patrick]

No, how to UNDO the flip.

axle flip is a bad idea.....dropped axle is the way to go or take out some springs(which can cause other issues)

It is wiser to "drop", than to "flip"....
Do a search as there are plenty of threads on this topic.

I have read a few posts on the axle flip and it definitely seems to be a lot less costly than a dropped axle. Can you explain further on why the flip is a bad idea?

Thanks, BK

BK, flipped axles in the front can cause bump steer. That is really bad since you can not steer the vehicle when you hit a bump just right. Very scary if you've ever had it happen to you! Hope this helps. Mike

Thanks man, appreciate the heads up! I figured there was a good reason just had to know. Also my apologies for highjacking the thread, I just had to ask.

[Oldguy]

Not a problem. You won't know if you don't ask. Mike
