First time posting, I'm looking to lower my 2000 HD. What kit is the best for a 2/4 that wouldn't mess with the ride? I'm a serious noob, and this is my dream Truck so I want to have it forever. Thanks in advance

 

2" coils, shocks (help ride)

Hangers and Shackles out back, also new shock will help here as well.

 

Thanks for the response Patman. Is there any particular brand you would recommend? Also what kind of set up do you on that sexy *** 03 of yours?

 

Eibach, hotchkiss would my first choice
Followed by Ground Force, and Belle check


Mines DJM arms, Hotchkiss coils up front
Eibach hangers, GF shackles and 99 Lightning leafs
As well as several notches and clearance mods
Oh and I have Belle check "street" shocks (silver body tubes)


Total suspension drop of 5/7 tires drop me another 1.5 or so

Here's how she sits after I sold my black Harley Davidson wheels and put my Chrome 02 Lightning wheels back on

 

That's looks awesome! Would I be able to do this myself?

 

A 2/4, can be done with normal hand tools, and a basic automotive skill set.

Worst part of the job is grinding the rivets off the frame, if you've never done something like that, it might be worth paying someone to do it who is more qualified

 

Keep in mind your truck sat a tiny big lower than a "regular" F150 of equivalent years. So your drop amount is figured based on standard F150 height and not your height.


Post a pic of your truck, it's also possible someone has modified it in the last 15 years.

 

Well I know I'm the second owner and the truck is pretty stock aside from the cold air intake and the exhaust.

 

Good looking truck! I hate to see you lower it any more, it looks great.

 

Appears to be stock ride height for a 2000 Harley


Nice truck! She looks very clean

 

Thanks she's my baby. I just have to get her lower so she'll be perfect for me. Lol. I appreciate all the help Patman.

 

Let us know what you buy and how it turns out

 

so don't mess it up...
