Just lowered back of L.

Put the Ground Force 2" shackles on the white beast and measured the back end. It only lowered the truck 1 1/4". Anybody else have the same experience? Not too miffed because the truck looks and handles better.

Spike : Sounds like you got the 2 for the price of 1 lowering deal. lol

Boone: I think it looks pretty good. Closed the huge gap in wheel well nicely. Could tell the truck leaned alot less in the corners also. It was worth the $$ IMO. I don't think I would want to lower mine more than 2" since you would raise all kinds of flags with Ford if warranty work is needed. The shackles were painted black so no need to re-paint, as some of the kits are blue.

I think mine settled down a bit after awhile. The back is lower now than it was when first installed - about 2 full inches. Now time for the front 1"
