What I did this weekend: Lowered a FORD

Here she is. 2005 F-150 Lariat Crew Cab.

She is suppose to be a 2/4 but it more like a 2/6 cause I didn't get the right the correct part. Instead i got 2 inch drop shackles instead of the hangers.

The kit is(suppose) a DJM 2/4. I ordered from Stylin Concept. DJM sent me the lowering controlle arms(2 inch drop) and flip kit(6 inch drop). Stylin was suppose to handle sending me the hanger(rasies the truck 2 inches), instead they sent me the shackles.

I started the front then onto the flip kit. When I got to the final part I sat there for 2 hours pissed off. Lesson, if your going to order something, try to get it direct.

Going to be ordering the 22's this week. :bling:

What do you think?

Now if it just had Chevy emblems on it! ;)

I've had problems with Stylin' Concepts in the past with two separate orders. The last guy I talked to (Gabe?) said he'd "hook me up next time I ordered", but I haven't ordered since.

is that your truck alex??


drops are cool on anything, but that is a fugly truck. they look great as a 4x4 but they are too rugged/box shaped/ugly to make a nice 2wd street truck.

LOL, it's my dads. I really like them slam and yes they do look great as 4x4's


but everyone has there taste in what they like.

Cool, maybe could use another inch in the front though. I did one a couple weeks ago, but only a 4x4 with 22's already. Used a McGaughy's 2/4 kit and it went in nice. Took us only 3 1/2 hours. Does it ever handle good for a full size 4x4. Customer was real happy.

I think I like it better than the new gm's that I see lowered.

68C15 08-14-2005 10:32 PM

do they make a 6/10 kit? that way you dont get nose bleeds from riding in the "cheap seats"
