Shocks

Anyone put in new shocks yet?
What do you recommend for stock height? (Did not lower rear end)
I was thinking of Edelbrock.
Please supply part numbers with recommendations.
Thanks

RH

shock

I e-mailed Edelbrock and they replied they do not have a listing on the IAS for the HD yet.

I know the truck sits 1" lower than F150 - it said so on the sticker.

Someone replied to an earlier post that the Lightning shock's bolt right up.
Anti-sway bar is a must.

I am not sure if Lightning sits 1" lower also, or if they are 2" lower.

The Bilsteins from a Lightning are a direct bolt on. I purchased mine from my dealer for $39 each. They are a huge improvement over the stock F150 shocks that Ford should have never installed. Probably the best $160 bucks I have spent so far.

I ordered a set of 4 Edelbrock IAS shocks yesterday.
I have to wait for them to be shipped. I can't
wait to install & cruise.
