I would keep it how it sits unless the wheels are rubbing when you turn.

They tires have always rubbed up against the plastic fenderwell- that is, ever since the 4" drop. I'm thinking of keeping the upper and lower DJM arms (the lower is 2" arm) and just swapping their 2" coil and slapping in a stock 1" coil. That would put me at a 3' drop and give me some more room!

Tim- Next is a black Ford emblem, back to stock emblems (acetoned pieces removed), and smoked tail and head lights.

First thing I said when I saw your truck "HOLY **** "

Don't do that route. Make them ford emblem white. That would be pimp.

They do look good, however I loved your old rims just as much if not better.

Dunno about that, Monty. I have a couple of posts going right now on getting a 2" drop using the DJM arms. I've tried two spring/spacer combos now.

Granted, I'm going for only a 2" drop (17" hub-to-fender), but these control arms seem to defy simple math.

Follow my posts -- I will provide updates as I solve the problem.

You're right. I think it is silver. Camera over exposes too much.

Either way, don't add black or smoke to the truck.

I rarely compliment or praise vehicles...but when I do, I MEAN it. Having said that....Your truck looks sweet! I LOVE black/powder coated wheels on Silver vehicles.

but (there's always a "but")...I agree w/ your plan to raise it back up just smidge. Once that's complete, it will be PERFECT.

BTW...please post more pics after raising it.
