? on drop kits...

I need to get a drop soon so I can put my wheels back on. I was woundering if there is anything new out there cause ive been out of the scene for a while. Tell me what u got so i can get some ideas. I would love to sit it on the ground but these frig'n Jersey roads SUCK!! But i still might go low anyway because the look is killer!! And It definatly has to handle as good as it looks!! Any info will be greatly appreciated, prices a +!!??
Thanks

Thumbs up

As you can see from my signature, I used a combination of DJM and Western Chassis components to lower my 99 L.
The western chass A-arms are the way to go on the front definately. You can use any manufacturers shackle and hanger kit for the rear. I went for a 3/5 drop. Be sure you communicate well with your supplier as to your truck being a lightning. (its already lower than stock F-150s so you cannot go by advertized drops unless the kit is made for the L) If yo like, E-mail me and I will hook you up with a supplier.

I have a set of 2-3 inch drop hangers for sale and a C-notch kit also. The parts are brand new, never installed. All you would need is the front components and a set of shackles.

Here is a picture
