What is the primary benefit of installing a flip kit?

A flip kit relocates your rear axle from underneath the leaf springs to above them. This process provides a significant drop to the rear of your vehicle, achieving a lowered or 'slammed' appearance and a lower center of gravity.

Does this kit require modifications to the original leaf springs?

No, this Belltech flip kit is designed to work with your vehicle's factory leaf springs without requiring modifications to them. This helps in retaining the original ride quality of your Chevrolet Astro or GMC Safari.

What is the purpose of the included C-notches?

The C-notches are a critical component of the kit that provides clearance for the rear axle and suspension components after they have been relocated above the leaf springs. This prevents the axle from hitting the frame during normal suspension travel.

Product Details

This Belltech rear axle flip kit is designed specifically for your 1985-1995 Chevrolet Astro or GMC Safari equipped with the factory composite leaf springs. What you get in this kit are the components needed to relocate your rear axle from underneath the leaf springs to above them. This process provides a significant drop, giving your van that traditional lowered look and a lower center of gravity. Belltech designed this kit to help you achieve that slammed appearance without needing to modify your original leaf springs, which helps in retaining a comfortable ride quality.

Inside this kit, you'll find axle saddles, U-bolts, U-bolt plates, and shock extensions. Crucially, most Belltech flip kits, including this one for your Astro, come with frame rail C-notches. These C-notches are essential for providing clearance for the axle and suspension components after the flip, preventing them from hitting the frame during suspension travel. The kit uses Grade 8 hardware for solid connections and features a durable powder-coated finish to resist corrosion. Belltech also includes detailed installation instructions to guide you through the process.

This specific kit is designed to give your Chevrolet Astro or GMC Safari a 2.5-inch rear drop. By relocating the axle above the leaf springs, you achieve a substantial lowering effect that changes the stance of your vehicle. Belltech has engineered this kit to be a direct fit for the specified vehicles, simplifying the installation process for those looking to achieve a custom lowered look.
