Yeah i like your trucks stance. Maybe a tad lower in the front for me. Are you tucking any tire in the back?

I've got basically what your looking to do already done. It rubs alittle when you are turning hard and hit road irregularities. Get the shocks for the extra 100. I didn't do the install and the labor was 5 hours plus alignment.

My truck rides the same because it uses lower control arm not new springs. The harley rides fairly stiff and has huge swaybars.

Hey guys fedex just(yesterday) dropped off my DJM 3.5/5 drop kit for my 06 f150 harley and cant stop thinking about lowering the truck and how good its gunna look, I have had ant's im my pants the last two days about getting this kit instaled and cant focus on anything else in my life curently but this kit. So tommorow after school im goin to this shop where this guys says he can put the kit on for $200 - $300. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT I DONT HAVE SHOCKS all i have is the current stock "sport-tuned" shocks.... Is it a bad idea to install the kit with the stock shocks??????!!!!!????? is my maind question. ahh im not gunna concentrate in school at all tomorow i gtg this kit on it gunna look sick, so much better than that 07 drop cuz the short bed takes away from the lines of the truck, I personally believe, or maybee im jealous of the fresh 07. GUYS SO I REALLY AM PULLING MY HAIR OUT WETHER TO INSTALL THE KIT TOMROW WITH THE STOCK SHOCKS ON IT TEMPORARILY????????? what should i DO????!!??!?!!?
