My 2010 F150 FX2 SuperCab

LOVE my new truck! Bought it Oct.5.2010 with 7 miles on it.
Many different things i would like to do over time and i will update as i go!
Would love for anyones ideas, comments, concerns ect.
First plans are either 22's or 24's with 2" rear drop shacks and/or
Two 10" subs under the back seat with amp and enclosure.
On a fairly strict budget so any help with saving some cashflow would help!

Basically you remove the stock shackles and replace them with the GF units. Save the money to go on some 22's or 24's. Maybe get a friend to help.

I've done a couple I find it easy if you get a floor jack with a block and prop it under the bumper and jack it way up. An impact wrench works a lot quicker to undo the shackles. Total job 15 min.
