Check the DJM site. They put their arms on a 4wd F150.

But now the factory struts need to be replaced, and thats where the Belltechs come into play. Im not sure whats better... wether using the adjustable Belltechs at factory height, or using them at 3" height to match the already lowered front.

EDIT: I also dont want the front to go any lower than the current 3" drop it has.
Are these the same arms listed for the '04/'05 models? I haven't seen a pair of lower control arms for '06 & up. I'm assuming they are since you have them on your truck, but just wondering since I haven't seen them listed for your specific truck. I'm definitely interested in these.

BTW, your truck looks great with the drop and Saleens, that's what I'm trying to do as well.
