Post lowering and ABS

At some point in the future I would like to lower my truck, for better handling. Some one told me once something about lowering effecting the ABS system. Anyone heard anything about this?
Also, is there anyone who has, or knows some one who has, lowered and had a problem with warranty work. I'm just womdering what kind of gripes the service department might have with this type of mod.
Thanks.
Tom

Cool

Wittom,

I lowered my truck (3/5) right after I took it from the dealer fall of last year and so far haven't had any problems with the ABS. They work perfectly.

Knock on wood, haven't had any problems with the supension that requires me to take it back to the dealer.

Find a reputable shop to do the job to minimize your chances of having any trouble with your truck (and Ford) later on.
