00 EXPY LOWERING ?'s PLEASE HELP ALL!

I have a 00 EXPY XLT W/O REAR AIR and I want to buy the best lowering kit that is avail for my year. I have rear springs not bars. I want to lower it about 3/4 would be great but want to be able to still take the kids and load up at home depot

OK, does ROUSH make a kit for this or eibach looks like they make springs that would be 3" FRT + REAR. I need to replace my shocks too 4 sure. Is hotchkis the best then if Roush doesn't make a kit? I'll stop there but Thanks to anyone that replys.

I only know Roush. I use to have a 98 Roush F150. I appeared to me that it was a 2/3 drop. It made the truck look outstanding as well as keeping it practicle. I was able to hual anything without fear. If you want more information on Roush go to their website at www.roushperf.com. Good luck.

Thank you for your reply but does anyone else know for sure that it fits or has any first hand experience with another kit that's great for the EXPY?

I have the Belltech 2/2 lowering kit. It's been pretty good to me. Also available 3/3 drop. One thing though, I'm on my third set of Nitro-Active rear shocks- shock durability ????? (Replaced under warranty)

Excellent expy69 thanks for the reply. Yeah I have the same truck as you and I was thinking about the Belltech's also. Do you have any pics of your rig?

I read that another good set-up is the Western Chassis 2" drop A-arms then add the 1" WC Smooth rider coils and that brings it to a CLEAN 3" drop. It does make more sence to get the least amount of drop from the springs so they aren't so stiff. If I were to get the BELLTECH 3" DROP SPRINGS I'm sure it would be real stiff.

ANYONE HAVE THE DJM 4" DROP KIT????

I ALSO READ THAT ABOUT 4" IS ABOUT THE CUT OF TO NOT HAVE ANY CAMBER ISSUES OR PROBLEMS? CAN ANYONE CONFIRM THIS?

AGAIN THANKS A LOT EVERYONE AND I'M SURE THIS WILL HELP OUT OTHERS AS WELL
