Hey there RU-vid friends! This week on TWG we tackle lowering another dodge square body! This time its a 1990-91 Dodge D150 Short Wide with a 318 Magnum. She still has a bit of work to be road ready but she will be there soon! This time the only purchased parts for this lowering are the Lower Control Arms and new U-Bolts. So I would say this is a Budget Lowering Video for these old girls. So follow along as we take this truck from Stock To Stanced!
Parts needed-
SpeedWay Motors Flip Kit----

You are right when you mentioned clean no cracked dashes. I just picked up an 86 D250 and I was shocked to see its dash so straight. I'm used to square body chevys full of cracks like my 83 C10s dash was after I "fixed it".... with a dash cover lol

Brandon LS Fruth, he's the guy that makes the tubular uppers and also the sleeve for the lower control arm pivot bolt so you can use the original bolt without having to drill the frame for the larger B-series LCA. He is in Virginia, and there's a substantial wait time on the uppers. Mine was 6 mos from order placement to delivery.

@twiztedwrenchgarage
@twiztedwrenchgarage 5 месяцев назад
@user-hs4vf8mx4x yea that would work to do that. But you get less wheel options on 5x5.5 then you do with your current bolt pattern. You have to run 2 inch spacers with the factory 20 spares anyways so I would just het space adapters to run them instead of trying to change the bolt pattern.

Just came across your channel , now subscribered , this truck , with the rear end flipped , is the filler for the rear end gear oil too low to get enough gear oil in it ? Also how did you mount the rear end vent tube and brake line set up ? I am gonna check out some of the rest of your videos. Thanks...
@twiztedwrenchgarage
@twiztedwrenchgarage 9 месяцев назад
Thanks for subbing. Your not really flipping the axle over your just moving the axle from under the leaf springs to over them. The fill is located in the same location. All brake lines and vent tube will also be in all the same.

So I test drove the truck for like a block or so after flip kit no issues … now my rear end u joints that are brand new just fell out and the bolts were tightened and now it’s all welded 😢…. So the original u joint fell out so I thought maybe it’s the wrong size since the truck came in pieces … what experiences have u had with wrong pinion angle ? Or wrong u joints cause I’m in a pickle lol and the side welded the shit out of the stuff
@twiztedwrenchgarage
@twiztedwrenchgarage 5 месяцев назад
Dang. It is possible you had the wrong U-joints. I think the 727 and 904 use differnt ones. But its based on your outside diameter yoke span. Wrong Pinion angle can cause vibrations and binding in the driveshaft which could damage to the transmisson and rear diff.

Hey quick question …. Does the flip kit actually take away the use of towing anything or loading the bed with stuff… cause I hear that installing drop shackles will get u the same amount lowering but still be able to load the bed jw have you or know someone that has tried it… thanks I’m in okc ok and looking for more truck parts if you know the way to reach the el reno auto shop thanks again
@twiztedwrenchgarage
@twiztedwrenchgarage 5 месяцев назад
Well, with you will only lower the rear 2 inches. You can still haul stuff with just those but one you do a axle flip that drops the rear 6 inches. So with the flip and shackles you would need to do a c notch to the frame for towing heavy stuff. Light work is fine.

The offset of the 03 wheel will be different so you will need to run 2 inch spacers on front and 1-1/12 on rear. Or you can have the center of the wheel hub opened up by a machine shop to increase the size to 3.54 inchs. Or both your call.

No problema. Siempre estoy feliz de ayudar donde puedo. Con los brazos de control inferiores B150 no necesitará modificar los resortes. Las únicas modificaciones requeridas son agregar los orificios de montaje para la varilla del puntal, cortar los topes de dirección y recortar los topes de tope. Puedes usar un amortiguador de fábrica. El brazo de control inferior b150 no cambia la geometría de la suspensión, solo mueve el bolsillo del resorte hacia abajo 2 pulgadas.

if you dont lower it with a proper lowering kit you end up pushing all the joints and geometry to their max at stance versus having that normal percentage of up and down travel your alwals maxed out and just destroying all that... there are companies that take and keep your natural geometry and travel by extending the lowering kit.. they cost more sure but ride better and last better.
@twiztedwrenchgarage
@twiztedwrenchgarage 2 месяца назад
I would normally agree with you. But..... there is no lowing kit for these trucks. Whe you lower these truck with van lower control arms your not stressing anything on the front as the van lower control arms actually move the spring down into a pocket 2 inches lower than the truck ones. All the ball joints and such for the most part all stay the same. Thanks for checking out the video.
