1-2 drop

I am thinking of a 1'' front and 2'' rear drop from Ground Force. Does anyone one here have this kit? How does it ride? What are the dissadvantages of lowering my truck other than less ground clearance? Thanks!

Look in this thread. Brandon is running the FRPP 1-2 drop kit.
I believe LFP sells the kit for 179.00

Thanks Ron.
Fun Ford - I got it through LFP. It was 159 when I got it, but it may have gone up. Im not too sure. The ride is pretty good, and it definitely holds to the road much better. I want a little more drop in the rear to even it out though.

Sounds like what I want, I dont want it to sit level. How was the install? Was it fairly easy?

I've got it. Easy install. I did it in the street. 130 bucks from Summit (or truckperformance). I think it's a perfect drop. Lower, but not too low. Plus, get to keep stock shocks. Search for installation picts. They're out there and it really helped me as it was the first time I'd tore into the front suspension.

I've got the ground force 1" 2" (or 3") on mine.

It dropped the front 0.75" and the 3" shackles dropped the rear 1.5". The ride is very very close to stock and I like it.

You'll want to shorten the rear swaybar end links too.

See pics on my web page.
