The design is different. I believe the saddles and transmission spacer are different. The new design correct pinon angle and centered the rear wheels.

This is not a method that we have tested so I cannot say yes or no. Maybe see if another forum member was successful with this method.

Yes the 2" shackle is the best method.

I am dropped 4.5 in the front, and never had to elongate my alignment holes. I did have to cut the tie rods though. The key is using the Belltech drop spindle along with another drop component, whether it is coils struts or control arms.

Check out my thread stickied to the street scene section....

Which shocks are included in the new BEL-970SP-2? I Have a 2010 Harley Davidson edition with AWD and am looking for ride quality and handling more than a dropped ride. After 55k miles its time for an upgrade.

Belltech Lowering Struts in the front and Belltech Street Performance in the rear. These are a good improvement over OEM. Most of our F150 customers who have purchased this same kit have shared their experience and love it.

I recently purchased this 2011 F150 Ecoboost as my daily driver and track car hauler. What a fantastic truck but, as usual, I couldn't leave well enough alone.......

Purchased my Belltech 3/5 from the Suspension Source and it is now installed. Rear leveling Airbags will be done in a couple of days.

I have a question and I can clarify, I have a 2997 FX4 Crew Cab, I decrease the height to seek greater control and stability, now, a complete kit Belltech give me this improved control and stability or is it just to make it look better. Regarding the KW coilovers, justifies the price difference with the results obtained? , Or is it just advertising. A kit that has Drop Spindle, springs and dampers Street to that level of stability and control take me? . The decrease is the maximum?. That's the best that I recommended but of both worlds.
