searching for my next mod...i definately want to lower my truck, or at least level it. im really thinking of just getting drop shackles for the back. JDM's are 65 bucks and JLP's shackles are 109 bucks, whats the reason is one better than the other? or is the JLP ones just prettier. also i really want a FTVB but i found that the JLPVB is cheaper...and most people have the FTVB. so i just wanted to know what you guys would go with? and do you guys have good results w/ just drop shackles? im only doing it for looks. thanks guys, peace.

 

Go with the FTVB. You can't go wrong with a part that is put out by an engineer on that specific transmission. I just got mine in last week and I am Impressed to say the least.
Chickenears.com has them in stock, and for a few extra bucks you can get a 4x4 pan and new filter that will add an extra 2 quarts. Here's a link to Gregg Evens explanation of how he makes his valve body

Good luck!

 

Not too sure about the shackles but the FTVB is the right choice, guaranted. Find it here. FTVB

We keep them in stock and ship every day.

Yep, the FTVB should be the first mod for any Lightning owner.

 

The FTVB should not be a "mod".



It should have been stock. You will love it.

 

alrighty so the sounds like the FTVB is a piece of junk then. ya right, ill probly order it in the next day or so! no real hurry though since im in the middle of the indian ocean, but ill be sure its waiting on my door steps when i get home in sep. by the way you guys are so lucky you get to drive your L's when ever you want, i dont care if gas is 5.00 a gallon when i get back im takin a road trip. i havent even seen my truck in almost 5 months! and thanks for the replys guys
