2/4 drop?

I just got an 06 stepside super cab and I love it. I would like a 2/4 drop, it seems mild enough for me. Any recomendations as for who makes the best kit and will not break my wallet.chime in guys, I see some real nice trucks in the street truck section. Thanks.

This is a 2/5.5. The actual parts were a 2/3 eibach kit ($330 avg.), 2" GF shackle ($100 avg), and the 1" block removed (free and seems to only be in 07's). I ended up getting my eibach kit brand new on ebay for $150, so keep an eye out because good deals are to be had on there. Good luck getting low.

FordScrew24's, so are you running the stock shocks all the way around? How's the ride?

yes stock shocks right now. The front is perfectly fine, however the rear definetly need to be swapped out. The rear is a little stiff and bouncy. Its tollerable, but not the most comfortable on bumpy and wavey roads. I cant decide if i want GF or belltech's 5" lowered rear shocks yet.

You hitting the bump stops because of the soft shocks possibly?

I'm gathering info if you didn't notice.

Its not hitting the bumps yet. They are yellow and just as clean as they were in the box. I think its more that the travel of the stock shocks is almost maxed out. I would think the shocks dont have that much travel to them.
