1 / 2CFMi Standard Shackle Flip Kit — Squarebody Chevy & GMC 4x4 (1973–1991)
Get rear lift and better articulation in one move — a classic shackle flip built for your Squarebody.
This is the CFM Industries standard shackle flip kit, built for 1973–1991 Squarebody Chevy and GMC K-series 4x4 trucks, K5 Blazers, and GMC Jimmys. A shackle flip is one of the most proven ways to get rear lift and better suspension geometry out of a leaf-sprung Squarebody — and this adjustable kit does exactly that, giving you around 4" of lift in the back along with improved articulation off-road.
If you want to lift the rear of your truck, level out a front lift, and get more flex out of your suspension all at once, this is the setup. Adjustable and purpose-built, it's the foundation a lot of Squarebody rear suspension builds start with.
Why It Works
- Adds rear lift — roughly 4" of lift to raise the back or level out a front lift.
- Better articulation — more flex and performance out of a leaf-sprung rear end.
- Adjustable — dial in your rear suspension setup the way you want it.
- Built for K-series 4x4 — fits '73–'91 K10, K20, K30 trucks, K5 Blazers & Jimmys.
- Optional HD shackles — add heavy-duty shackles to complete the setup.
