What is required to lower?

Hey guys, I have a 2004 Heritage, obs, 2wd V6. I thought about lifting it for a while but being a 2wd, I might as well lower.


Heres how the truck stands now...



I'd like to as low as a lightning or maybe a little higher, not sure.

Thanks fellars.

you are looking at roughly a 1/3 on the high side and a 2/4 on the low side, compared to a lightning.

Cheapest way would be coils in the front, and shackles, or hangers and shackles in the rear.
