I always wanted to lower my truck some, I don't need the height of a 4x4. So I went to stylin concepts and bought these.



They are belltech lowering shocks, supposed to give +1 lift down to -2 drop, depending on how many rings you put on. and a pair of DJM lowering shackles.

After install, I ended up with a 3" drop in the front, and 1.5" in the rear. Not what I was expecting. I was looking for a 2/2 drop, I was allready within .5" of being level by just removing the rear blocks. My measured height before 37.25" F/37.625" R after 34.25" F/36" R

After the install F/R

 

looks sweet!!! hows the ride?

 

So far I only took it around the block just to make sure there was no vibe in the rear, if there would have been then I would have to add some shims. All is well. I still need to get it in for an alignment.

Wow, just a hair lower than I was expecting, but looks good.

 

Very nice;, very factory

 

Looks good. Now lose the boards and get some bigger rims.

 

The boards have to stay, the wife needs them to get in. As for the wheels, I'd like too, but this is Cleveland. We get potholes around here that can swallow a car, besides any less sidewall would be like riding a buckboard around here.

 

looks good, but yeah lose the boards, and also lose the FX4 stickers!

 

I liked your truck better up higher...oh well

how is the ride? the new shocks any better than OEM?

 

get fx2 decals(custom) and custom 20s

 

Why?

 

lose the decals and throw some d's on that bitch.

 

Lowering a FX-4 is like a well endowed girl getting a breast reduction......It's just wrong!..........

 

Here we go...
