my recommendation, go back to stock 275/45/20 tires, put in the stock coils, but 1/2 coil off. 3" drop, 0" fender gap, no downgraded tire size

Gomez,
I think you really need to experiment for your own truck and not LISTEN to anything that anyone here has to offer from their own EXPERIENCE ("been-there-done-that")! ... at least then? ... you will KNOW for certain! LoL!

Thanx for the help everybody that pitch in. Cutting my stock coil might work but if i cut it and i dont like then im fduck..........
HD#677 U R RIGHT ABOUT JUST EXPERIENCE THANX BRO!
I have nother question my belltech shackles have optional holes and i want to go down one well i remove the nuts from the bolts from the shackes but i coudnt take the bolt all the way out it was to hard. then i run out time so i put it back togher. any body can please tell me how to do it how to just switc it to the bottom hole.......
DO U GUYS KNOW WHAT DROP ON THIS HD?
AND THIS ONE?
Those all look like 03's with flares and I would say proably a 3" drop but not sure
What is the point of the forums? Waste money as much as you can trying out 15 different drop setups? Or take some advice for whats proven to work, and at least start there and tailor it to your specific desires. Rather than blindly shooting in the dark.
You can cut them multiple times. Start with 1/3rd coil even. The front suspension is CAKE to take apart. Cut it and see hwo it looks, drive around for a day, then adjust later tilll you're happy. Then align.
There should be 2 holes. The 2 closest together are for a 1" drop (about 0.75" actually). The 2 furtherst apart are for a 2" drop (about 1.5" actually). You need to jack the truck up, jack th erear a little to take the weight off. take off the lower nut and bolt. Jack the rear up so the top bolt of the shackle is above the frame rail. Take that top nut off, then slide the top bolt out across the top of the frame rail.
Whatever you do, Listen to Josh, he knows his ****!
3/5 Drop is about perfect for HD's.
you know if you are willing to drive about 2 hours south of you I have a friend that owns a shop that can lower/raise it for you and adjust the ride to suit your needs
I will even drive over and meet you at his shop in Vallejo
he has been lowering vehicles and doing custom work for over 20 years
let me know and we will get this done
anybody know how how much drop is this? can i go down one hole with this kit?
looks to be at least a 4" rear drop
it is adjustable by using the different mount holes
Do i need to flip the shackles to lift up
lowering kit 2 / 4 Ground Force for the state of our road in quebec is ok
I'm just disappointed that shocks was in the kit are really badf-150 harley 1 001.jpg
