Has anyone lowered their rearend...
Now that I have your attention...
I find a lot of information here on F150Online on raising the front suspension to level out the truck but no one has started a thread that talks about lowering the rear suspension.
I don't like the looks of a truck that has a lot of space between the tires and wheel wells. To me, it looks like someone lifted the truck but ran out of money to buy a larger set of tires. Someday I may lift the truck but only if I can put a set of 33's or 35's under it.
So if anyone has lowered their rear, please let me know where you found the parts. I am assuming all I would need is a new set of rear shackels to lower it about 1 1/2 to 2 inches. Or if there is a better way, please let me know.
Please, no smart a$$ remarks... let's keep it clean.
Thanks.
