Here is a picture of my lowered L. with a Bell tech 3/4 drop and 2 inch Western Chassis A-arms. I have installed Doetsch Tech rear shocks and Edelbrock front shocks. Ford dealer installed Camber kit for alignment. Hope this is some help!

The front is lowered about 3 1/2 inches and the rear is about 4 1/2 inches!

The Bell Tech kit cost me $236.32

Western Chassis 2 inch A-arms $349.95

Edelbrock front shocks $58.00 each

Doetsch Tech Rear shocks $50.00 each

I did alot of research before I Lowered my L. and at the time no companies really had any kits for L.'s so I when with a kit that is made for a F-150 2 wheel drive. It worked out really well. I see other kits out there now cost way too much $$$. I got away saving alot of money and my L. handles and drives awesome!

Heres mine with a 3/4 belltech drop kit.
Also put the bell tech nitro shocks on, handling is much better now, but I got to watch where I drive now.

DJY, they must have some smooth streets in the big H, cause I could not drive with that by me.
