Ok I want to lower the rear of my 150 supercab instead of level the front. Can this be done? The bed is too high. Oh its an 07 FX4 package

OK cool thats seems easy enough I guess. Has anyone else used the kit? all I see here is guys you lift the front. Is there a reason nobody drops the back?

NGM

Because its up for a reason. When a load is put in the back of the truck it dosent squat in the rear.

Oh sorry I have one more question would the kit reduce my cargo capacity? Thanks so much, I love this site!

Ok that was quick, thanks.

its the same travel as having the front end lifted though

NGM

Yea but the truck will sit with an *** down attitude if the front is raised or the rear is lowered and you put a load on it. I put 2200 lbs in the back and it was barely rear down.

kennythekid

anybody with pics of the rear lowered??

blackbetty

very much agreed....if you dont use it much or dont plan to put a ton of weight...then id go for it no problem, however sustained weight would put drivetrain components and suspension at a higher rate of wear....agreed?
