Guys ive done a lot of drop kits on the ford trucks over the past 15 years. Any questions you have any year truck just shoot it here. 2wd or 4wd ive worked with both so just ask and I'm glad to help. Not only do I install/sell these kits I offer 24/7 support so if you want to call me at 415 519 2432 feel free to do so.
Just need you to answer below questions so I can give you the best answer.
1) what year truck?
2) 2wd or 4wd?
3) how low do you want to go?
4) budget you want to be in?
5) belltech or djm item or both doesn't matter.
Here goes the suspension order page I will be adding pics up shortly

1) what year truck? 2011
2) 2wd or 4wd? 2WD
3) how low do you want to go? 3/5
4) budget you want to be in?
5) belltech or djm item or both doesn't matter. Belltech
OK, so I have already lowered my truck and it looks nice. However, my rear ends sits a little lower than the front. I really wasn't expecting this to happen. My question is, do I need to use airbags to raise it up some as well as level it when I haul a trailer or are there other options. Cheaper the better at this point!!!

Slam bags are just a name brand air bag. They specialize in airride bags and they have a tow bag set up for lowered trucks. As far as I know it's the only helper bag kit made for the dropped trucks. I got mine from auto anything back in February. They were less than $300 shipped. Install takes about an hour. You will have to use schrader valves supplied with the kit unless you want it to be a full on board air system. That would cost ya another 3-500 depending on parts used. Then you could run an air gun on the side of the road, air up a flat tire, or run a set of air horns.

1) what year truck? 2014
2) 2wd or 4wd? 2wd
3) how low do you want to go? 2/4
4) budget you want to be in? $800 give or take (with helper bags)
5) belltech or djm item or both doesn't matter. Belltech AND DJM
I was thinking Belltech struts and rear shocks with DJM flip kit. Going to be towing a travel trailer (5200lbs loaded plus payload) so I was thinking a set of helper bags would be needed.
