2016 RCSB 5.0 3/5 Drop kit help?
I lucked out and the tech passed me at our first Autocross event with the stipulation that I lower my 2016 F150 and put a better set of tires on it. So far I haven't been able to find a 3/5 kit for a standard cab 2wd truck. I saw that DJM offers a 3/6, but that looks like it is too much and I don't want to have to notch the frame. I'm just looking for something that looks nice on a set of Limited 22" wheels and handles well. Any help would be great.

You're going to autocross an F150?
I mean, props, but why not buy a $700 miata or e30 that would 1000x more fun to whip around a set of cones? Doesn't matter how low you put your truck, or how sticky the tires are, it's never going to be as fun as a lighter RWD car.

Lighter, probably not. But it is definitely more fun. I'm not out there to post an impressive time or even compete with some of those Serious SCCA solo'ist, but man do I love taking a full size truck and make it do something it was never intended to do. I've had a few lightnings that I autocrossed, and this new body style is just as fun.

Nice, props to you for doing something different!
I don't know the exact curb weight of your truck, but I know it's more than my factory e30 which was about 2740lbs with leather interior.
