Not true, those girls and eat a whole bunch. I wouldn't do that unless your wallet can afford the buffets. Instead, I'd go for the FNG mod.[/emoticons/emotion-2.gif]

Cut the dog-bones in half and weld a 3/4"(+/-) piece back in.


Holy crap man, adding 3/4" to the bones would drop the bike more than 3"s. That might be taking it a little far. A good rule of thumb is 3/16" difference in the dogbones equals right at 1" change at the rear wheel.

As I said, I don't remember how much I used to weld back in, but take a look at my bike. it is w-w-w-aaay lower than stock.

so if i do the flip and grind i can always turn it back over to stock right? i cant get any of the video links to work, anyone know a current link?

what about the pcs link and spring kit? is it a pain in the a$$ or not....any general thoughts about this kit?

everything you could ever want to know about the flip and grind, which is improperly labeled because you should grind it BEFORE you flip it, otherwise it wont fit, which is the entire point of the Grind and Flip.
