guys, I want to lower the front of my truck 2", what are you guys opinions on these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...876850914&rd=1 as to the ride/handling difference as compared to stock? any info or opinions appreciated thanks guys!

 

They are used. So far the bid is $80 plus $25 shipping.

I do not know if I would buy used springs, but that is just me.
Don't forget you will also need a camber kit and an allighnment.

I am sure the ride is a little stiffer but they look like a nice spring.

you need the camber kit even with a 2" spring? I thought superfords didnt need one with his Hotchkis coils?? sorry I dont really know ***** about suspension stuff, I'm a straightline kinda guy

 

You need the camber Kit with a 1 inch drop.So definately with a 2 inch.Superfords is just letting his settle and he is going to put the kit on and get an allighnment.

Things you will need for a front drop-

1. Springs($150)
2.Camber Kit($20)
3.Allighnment($75)
4.Shorter endlinks($25)
5.While its all apart ,Herbs Washers($25)

I am sure the suspension guys will chime in with more info.

oohhhhhhh okay, thanks for the replies Vinnie nice sig pic btw, LOL

 

Do a search here and on NLOC. Some love them, but it appears that more do not. Some had a problem with coil bind.

 

Yeah, that 8-71 blower gave me a ton of torque. I already had the hole in the hood.HEHEHE

 

I"m happy with my Eibachs, but then again, I don't road race it like some do. I saw about 1.75" of drop on the front end.

 

I just want to drop it for looks, I am happy with the handling characteristics of the truck from the factory (except for that annoying tendency to turn the rear tires to smoke LOL )

 

That was my reason as well. Just make sure to get shortened end links. What a difference. I went a couple months before finally buying a set. Front end felt a lot different.
