What is a flip kit and why would I use one?

A flip kit is a suspension component that relocates your rear axle from underneath the leaf springs to sit above them. This method provides a significant drop for your vehicle, creating a lower center of gravity and a more aggressive, 'slammed' appearance without altering the OEM leaf springs.

Does this kit include everything needed for the installation?

This Belltech flip kit includes axle saddles, U-bolts, U-bolt plates, shock extensions, and frame rail C-notches. Grade 8 hardware is also provided. You will need to refer to the included installation instructions for the complete procedure and any additional tools or supplies that may be required.

What is the purpose of the C-notches included in this kit?

The C-notches are essential frame rail modifications that provide clearance for the frame when the rear axle is flipped to sit above the leaf springs. Without them, the frame rail could contact the axle or suspension components during normal suspension travel, which would be detrimental.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to give your 1995-1999 Chevrolet Tahoe a seriously aggressive drop, this Belltech flip kit is designed to do just that. This kit relocates your rear axle from underneath the leaf springs to sit above them, giving you a significant amount of lowering. The goal here is a slammed appearance and a lower center of gravity, all while aiming to keep your factory ride quality intact because it doesn't require modifying your OEM leaf springs.

Belltech engineers these flip kits specifically for each application, and this one is tailored for the 1995-1999 Chevy Tahoe 2-door. It's made from high-quality steel and features a durable powder-coated finish to hold up over time. You'll find Grade 8 hardware included, which is strong stuff for this kind of suspension work. Most kits, including this one, come with axle saddles, U-bolts, U-bolt plates, shock extensions, and importantly, frame rail C-notches. These C-notches are crucial for providing enough clearance for the frame rail when the axle is flipped, preventing contact during suspension travel.

This kit is designed to provide a 5.5-inch rear drop for your Tahoe. While this kit includes the necessary components for the axle flip and C-notches, remember to consult the included installation instructions for the full procedure. It's a substantial modification, so taking your time and ensuring everything is correctly positioned is key to achieving the desired stance and maintaining safe operation.
