Default Lowering spindles for 4WD

Has anyone made or considered making lowering spindles for a new style 4WD? I would love to lower my FX4 2/4, but I don't like the way it messes with the front suspension geometry. I mean, aftermarket companies have made this exact product for GM trucks for years- why not Fords?

I'm with you- want to do the same thing with my FX4 (2013). I emailed a dealer about the McGaughy kit, but he says it's only for 2WD. He says there is a Ground Force Lowering Kit that should work for 4x4.. think I'll check into it to be sure.

I have an xlt 4wd and want to lower as well... There is a guy on the forum which is "DJMBelltechdirect" user name or atleast something like it that offers group buys etc, I talked to him a few months back and he claims we can drop it with no problems...


If you guys are interested lets see what kind of deal we can get on 3 kits, 1 for each of us?

If you want a drop spindle I think a custom one from Michigan metal works is your only option

why not do a 2/3 like I did? All Belltech. Solid as all hell. Zero issues in 4wd in snow. No vibration.
Just a thought...
