^^^ agreed, I have had 2 lowered trucks and loved both of them, I've also had 7 leveled or lifted vehicles and loved them. My opinion is that a 4x4 should be lifted/leveled and a 2wd should be lowered. Nice work guys!

iamsuperbleeder

you and me think a lot alike

I've owned my 4x4, and yeah I lifted it too. I have NOTHING against lifting a 4wd, or even some 2wds, but it seems like if you tell a 4x4 owner that you're going to lower your 2wd, and you might as well tell them you're going to paint it pink and cover the interior with glitter... you get the same reaction...

I mean sure there's certain 2wd's that serve their purpose at stock height, like F350's and duallys. Their sole purpose is to haul around extra heavy loads, so the ground clearance in the rear is needed so when the rear squats when there's 2k lbs in the back the rear bumper doesn't drag the asphalt

05FX4-

I believe that all trucks should be 4x4 otherwise its just a big *** car. But I know not everyone needs it or likes it or can afford it so I dont hate on dropped trucks I just dont think I would ever buy a 2wd truck. my .02 cents....... Oh and hes right your FX2 does look pretty sick still especially with the halo lights.

Don't get me wrong, I like dropped trucks; after all, we classic hot rodders have been doing it for a long time. That said, there is no way the payload capacity remains the same. There's no room for the truck to squat under heavy loads without bottoming out the suspension.

And to the poster regarding "...it's like having a truck without 4x4..." or whatever. Uh, I have a 4x4 and I think I may have only used it once... ever and I probably didn't need to.

Irrational statement. Big *** cars can't haul a half ton of rocks, carry sheets of plywood and 2x4s, trees for landscaping, haul crap to the dump, haul motorcycles, etc, etc.

I have a 4x4, but I've never needed it and all of my previous f150s were 4x2.

is it the picture or do your front wheels tilt in at the top?

wow dang a bit harsh but i agree with you guys if its a 4X4 lift it and if its not dropp it or leave it stock. and mine is a NOT 4X4 I REPEAT NOT! lol and yess it looks a bit tilted in the front but i had those wheels on it for like 2 weeks and it rubbed bad, im just finding smaller tires for them. but since its got control Arms it shouldnt eat up my tire on the inside

dropped09f150

I'm not a fan of lowered trucks. But I will say yours looks great.

I do want to ask.... why do you still have step bars??

eptesicus

I'm with ksmith88us. I'm not a fan of lowered trucks either, especially ones lowered so much that they drag to the ground. Lowered classic trucks, sure. Lowered new-ish DD trucks, no.

But yours looks great. I'd sell the step bars for some extra cash (or invest it back into the truck), but it still looks great. I love that color. Well done!
