My friend Mikes L looks exactly like that. His is not bagged. I know he has the Western Chassis A arms and springs in the front. I wanted my front a little lower than my Belltech 3/4 gave me. After helping him change his oil and check his plugs plugs for him I noticed that his oil and transmission pan were SEVERELY dented. I have a FTVB and deep pan and after seeing this I decided against it.

Cool, thanks for the info.

So something like this would do the trick?

97-02 Ford F-150 4"/6" Economy Drop Kits:
Ford's new F-150 is the hottest selling Ford product since
the original Mustang, and we've got the hottest selling kit to
go with it, the massive 4"/6" drop. This kit uses Western's
2" front H.D. Super A-arms combined with 2" Smooth-Rider
coils (not pictured). In the rear, a 5" axle flip kit and frame
c-section is used with a 1" shackle to deliver the 6" drop.
This one's a real head-turner! A deluxe drop is also available
which includes a 2000 lb. Hellwig Air Kit for trailer towing and
heavy hauling. Soon to be featured in a Sport Truck magazine
editorial. (Special version also avail. for Lightning/Harley-D's).
97-02 F-150 4"/6" Economy Drop Kit: $699.95
97-02 F-150 4"/6" Deluxe Drop Kit: $899.95

Well, if you think about it -

Of course you can. Airbags don't make a vehicle lower. They bring it back up to a driveable height, from ridiculous drops.

Even if you buy airbags, you still have to do the lowering a-arms, frame notch, spring flip kit, etc.... You're as low as you can go, BEFORE the airbags come into the picture.

Its not bagged, it had either a 4/4 or 4/5 drop I dont remember. I know he had a slight rake, but I as I remember he told me his drop in the rear was the same as mine. Id bet its a 4/4 drop ... with a small c-notch as I remember

I don't claim any expertise on drops or bags but...

I was at Towers about one year ago when that truck arrived and parked across from me. When he shut it down there was a noticeable...Pshhhhhhhhh....Like an 18 wheelers air-brakes bleeding off. As that occurred the truck sank to the ground. Bagged? I think so, but thats just my experience or something
