Mine looks quite close to yours. I'll see if I can get pics of the shackles and stops today here is the truck as purchased. I did some research and am looking at the Monroe MA777 air shocks and an air lift kit. I'm using this for a work truck. And may tow a utility trailer occasionally.

does it look as low as my 99 f150 this is a 3/4.5



Im pretty sure these are longer than stock shackles. <br/>And there is a pretty severe thrust angle wedge between the spring and axle.

I lowered my 2014 FX2 with the DJM lower control arms and I have a noise from the front end. It's a popping noise. From what I have found, I appears to be an issue with the front sway bar and the end links. The end links are totally maxed out - bending in both directions. Anyone else lowered their 2014 with the DJM control arms have problems? I am fed up and about to cut either my end links or sway bar

Would Belltech front lowering struts work on a Raptor?
