This is 2/5

Belltech 2/3 coil/leaf setup:

Belltech 2/3 coil/leaf setup:

I like your truck, and it would leave like a 3/4-1" rake on my truck so I can haul my quad and not sag.
How much does the belltech 2/3 cost?
This is with 2/4 Mcgaughy (4"rear leafs and 2" front Coil over) drives great unless you are gonna be towing (towing get helper springs)or spining your tires on dry pavemant (will cause wheel hop n bent or broken U-joint)


Just for your info guys 100% even from ground to wheel lip front and back (sorry no close side pic), dont know how 2.5/6 is any bit even. Just take my word for it. My SUPERCREW was prefectly even with the 2/4 Mcgaughy setup (which is for sale) why? cause my oversize tires get exspenive do to aligmeant.. Stock wheels worn prefectly even with the drop 305/24's didnt
Anything lower then 2/4 it will drive like a lowrider n hit every crack in the road.. if ur gonna upsize tires the 2" drop shackles are nice (which i have now)

also another thing to take into consideration my fiberglass bed is probably lighter then your guys' steel beds, meaning i need more of a drop to level.........

true about the bed, I would think.. but i still dont see how on a supercrew 2.5/5 would be even, unless the 2.5 is closer to the 3" mark.. your also right about people not reading on this site, thats very true I was hoping not to ofend anyone cause I HATE when people fight on here.. its pointless we all are here to talk n help eachother for ideas, but all i see is bad tlk about other rides.. EVERYONES truck is nice in their OWN way stock or not 2wd or 4wd. be happy we have Fords and not dodges chevys or others.. 3/5 even 2/4 even 2" rear even all he asked was for help n advice on a good drop

Ground Force 2/5
I found the ground force 2/5 drop: 2" coil front drop, 5" rear flip kit, and rear gas charged monotube shocks. Summit has it for $679.99. Best price Ive seen. Would it come with everything I would need?
Seems like the rear would sit nice and low and have NO "stink bug butt" at all. Anybody have any comments or concernes for this drop? Anybody have it? Im not sure if it comes with pinion wedges, so would I need to get those seperately.

, and costs less. According to my measurements, it should sit dead level.It said it doesn't come with shocks but I sure 4 new bilsteins can cure that. Does it come with everything else like: shims, nuts, bolts, and ect.
Did you have the front end re-aligned with the drop? I know you have 24's and I only have 20's but I don't want any excesive tire wear. Should I be concerned for my tires or were your problems from way over-sized wheels? When my stupid directional Toyo's wear out I going to get some A/T's (BFG or Nitto), and I will stay somewhere around 31".
