I got a suggestion buy 12 lugs put 3 on each wheel then you can install your caps

What if you do like bankrupt said and put 12 lugnuts that you have to have and then 12 regular chrome lugs. Your cap would go on and they would all look the same

I'd probably try 3 per. You might even be able to convince stealth to try it with his wheels/caps and see what happens

It will work. That's a pretty good idea. I should have done that and used 3 of my spline lugs to make the 6. Would have been cheaper.

It will work, man. I don't need to try. As long as your other lugs fit in the lugnut holes in the cap.

Three Ford HD lugs (triangle pattern) and three other lugs (triangle pattern) then the cap snaps right on.

I am getting ready to purchase a set of the djm lca's. Right now I am running 3" spring and drop struts. I am going to run the lca with my drop strut and a stock coil spring to achive the 5" drop. Does anyone run the djm lca's? How do you like them?

Where you buying them at? This place has them the cheapest I've seen.

http://www.streetsideauto.com/produc...ampaign=Become

It says 05 4wd f150 on their website but if you cross that part # to djm's website it shows to be for our trucks.

I'm curious to see if it rides any better with that setup, if so be sure to let me know as I'll probably do the same.
