Does nobody here lower their trucks ? I have a 2wd Ext cab and thinking of lowering it , I hate the look of a 2wd lifted . Already have a lifted truck and hate driving

 

im tryin to lower my 1990 F150 cuz its 2wd and i wanna kno if any 1 has any sugestions on which way to go. im lookin into a DJM 3-5 inch drop kit for the back and take off about 2 inches with spring clamps on the front till i can find a nice set of springs.

 

I'd stay away from spring clamps . Them things are junk and can pop off . I had a truck a few years back that I bought that had them on it and on the way home from buying the truck I hit a good sized bump causing the spring to compress and the clamp fell off causing some loss of control . I prefer using spindals in the front over lowering springs my self , but this will be my first F-150 to lower so not sure what is out there for it . I have done many Chevy trucks but the first Ford . I have read so far that they are not as easy or cheap as other brands to lower . Any links to places for parts ????

 

check out stylingtrucks.com or keep an eye on the classifieds here or your local craigslist for used parts which will be considerably cheaper.

Coon and JDM, most of us lowered guys hang out down in the street scene section

1998 ford f150 lowered with a belltech 3/4 lowering kit

 

nope everyone on this forum has a lifted truck with black rims




believe it or not there's several of us that have lowered trucks

 

Nah.

 

Wish my truck was black , I like black rims but they would look dumb on a maroon truck . lol

 

no bro black goes with anything. theres a two tone eclipse anround town its black and maroon. looks pretty sweet.

 

I just lowerd my 4x4, 2" drop in front 5" drop in back. My 4x4 works great still in the dunes.

 

does any1 kno if i can just flip my leaf springs or do i need a new plate for a block kit? its cheaper that way, but if it comes down to it ill get a djm kit. but i really need help with the front
