Hey guys, I recently sheared off a lower shock mount on some rocks and figured it might be a good excuse to install a u-bolt flip kit on my cruiser. Some searching here seemed to suggest that a 60 series kit will work on a 70 series. Specifically I found this link: http://www.man-a-fre.com/parts_accessories/uboltflipkit.htm

Has anyone installed this kit on a 7x or any other kit for that matter. Is axle width an issue? Is any modification necessary?

Any input would be appreciated.
 
Been a while, but pretty sure it was the 60 kit I used and have on my BJ74. No problems, and it does make a difference.

EDIT: The shock mount location allows use of whatever shock you were using...meaning it is still low and open to abuse. I've ground a few nuts off on the lower side and also folded the large washers a few times. Up higher would be nicer...but that would be more then just the plug and play these offer.
