Can Square Axles be Flipped
Updated 09/13/2018 | Published 09/12/2018
Question:
I seen the response about moving the leaf springs above the axle. Can you also flip the axle to create more ground clearance?

Expert Reply:
"Flipping" really just means moving the axle below the leaf springs as in the response you were referring to.
So in that sense yes, you can flip the axle so it sits below your leaf springs with square axles that don't have a spring seat and have the U-bolts face the opposite direction; however there is not a kit for this like the conversion kit for round axles.
