Need Help, Want to lower my 01HD

Hey guys,

I have a 01 supercrew HD that I want to lower. Belltech told me that going 1" in the front and 2" in the rear is the ticket. Anybody have any thoughts on this or a better way to go. HELP PLEASE!!!

Bones

Lower That HD

Hey Bones,

I have the 2000 HD, and I'm also going to lower it as soon as the belltech parts come in. I'm going with a 3" front coil in front(this will give me a 2' drop), and a 2'' leaf spring hanger plus a 1'' rear shackle in the rear (this will give me a 3" drop in the rear).
I'm also going with the belltech nitro active shocks. This setup will leave me with a 1" rake
Don't forget that the HD's came stock with a 1" drop from the standard F150's. Got all my info from belltech. I'll post some before & after pics when the work is completed

Thanks Deacon and you are right they did come lowerd from the factory however when I talked to Belltech, they recomended 1" in the front and 2" in the rear with the same shock set up ? Let me know how yours works pal.

You will not be satisfied

You should try to go lower!!!!! Lowering a truck is like when a woman gets implants always go to the next size up or in this case down. I have 2-4 drop and wish I went with 3-5 or even a 4-6. IMO
