I just recently put some 22" Liquid Metal Wingman's on my truck. I have some 285/40/22 Falken's on. I noticed that the back sits up higher than the front. Should I lower the back or lift the front?? Suggestions please.

 

drop it.......... would look retardo with a jacked up front end..

 

+1! I agree, drop that puppy. It'll look really good then!

 

Without a doubt, lower the rear.

 

leave it raked..... thats how i had my dakota.... and ppl liked it

 

Hmmm.... I agree.... Drop that Puppy! I think she'd look awesome! It Looks great now!

 

Def drop it

 

I believe I will go ahead and drop it. How do I go about getting that started?? what do I buy?? How much does it cost?? etc.

 

2" drop shackles by Ground Force.

 

Yep, can be ordered online for around $80. I bought mine at a local shop for $98, they installed for $40. Be sure and install the wedges that come with the Ground Force kit. The wedges are why you want the GF kit in the first place.

 

Thanks BlueJay and Stealth!!! When I get it done I will make sure to post some pics.

 

I just dropped my FX4 an hour ago - but all I did was remove the stock 2" block from between the leaf spring and axle. Reinstalled the same U-Bolts using a few washers (not threaded far enough) and cut off the excess bolt.

Total cost = $1.50

Well, except now the new Bilsteins I just put on a few days ago seem a bit long...but probably OK. Not sure if 2X4 shocks are same but a little shorter? If so, I'll trade somebody???

 

Please do. I want to do the same rear drop and i have been looking at the exact tire you have, the falken 285 40s for my 22s. i wanna see what its gonna look like after you drop the *** end. After seeing your wheels and tires though im thinking i want more tire, so i may do a 285 45 if i find some.

Ill await the pics though

Also, if you dont mind me asking, how do you like those falkens? do they ride nice or are a bit stiff? and hows the wear on them?
Did your ride quality suffer quite a bit?
