My FX2 Drop.
#22
808Mike, that truck is beautiful! i have a 14 fx2 that im planning on throwing some 2 inch shackles on to level it. those spacers look to have made a HUGE difference in the look!! with your drop are you getting any rubbing with the spacers? im assuming you might being that low (mainly when turning the wheel to the the steering lock), but hoping i would not with just rear shackles. thanks.
god bless.

Thnx Man! Yea I think 1 inch is juat right with these OEM 20's! my frnd got the 1.25 Spacers. his sticks out a bit more than mine. But this setup will do for now until I decide what 24 inch rims to get! LOL

Thnx so much! I have no rubbing in the front at all! Lock to Lock it's fine! But the rear with my drop and the spacers...I noticed the top of tire rubbed on the flare a little bit....but that only happened on a steep driveway. when it compresses. but it was very minor. no damage. other than that everything works flawless! With just rear shackles you will be fine with spacers!

Good looking truck. I went with djm for my drop. Did a 3/5.5 drop but put drop shackles so it is 3/7

nice truck dude!!! did you have to cut the studs down a bit to fit the 1" spacers? Also exactly what parts did you buy for the first drop the 1.5/2" that's exactly the look I want, and did you shim the rearend?

Thnx Bro! Well did not half to really cut the studs...all I did was file down the very tip of the stud. the part that has no threads on it. you'll see it once you look at it. it was barely touching. so I just filed it down some. and it's good to go after that. as for the Drop... I used the Belltech Adjustable struts. U have to look at the chart to use the correct amount of spring perch spacers to get the drop u want. I forget offhand how many I used for the 1.25 drop in front. and I used just Belltech rear drop shackles and yes I used a I think a 2.5 degree shim and it worked great no vibes!

Truck is looking good man! I haven't done much lately to mine. Been debating on a supercharger or just getting another Cobra instead. If I get a Cobra then I am pretty much done with mine for a while but if not I have a few performance mods that i want to do!! Love your truck man!
