Hey guys, you can purchase the items I used in this video by clicking the Amazon Link above to checkout.


Well, I made a mistake and wanted you all to know in case you watched Part 1 of my rear axle flip. I thought that have performing the flip and my pinion angle didn't move, that I would not need to weld in the leaf spring perch. Well, I was wrong! As soon as I put in drive and put a load on it the rear differential dropped down to a severe (-) negative pinion angle.

Our U-joint need anywhere from 0.5 - 3.0 degrees to allow for longevity and limited vibration at different speed levels. My rear pinion as seen in the video would be catastrophic had I not caught it. I want to be honest with my viewers and not leave my first video simply thinking a non-welded perch would be okay and need to let you know asap.

Keep in my that this is my opinion for data that I have found for my particular ride setup. This is NOT a track truck "YET", lol. This is a daily driver with minimal boost with leaf springs However, is dropped 6.5" This video demonstrates my correction to my truck but also give pointers on what to look for and measure when you do this yourself to avoid doing things twice which we "ALL" do not like doing things twice.
