HOw did you like the belltech flip kit? I'm planning on installing the flip kit soon and some feedback would be great! thanks

On the shock question----- I have a 3" drop too using SUMMIT brand shocks which are made by Doestch, just measure your current shock then subtract the amount of drop the look for them on SUMMIT under the sport truck shocks by length.
