lift or lower?
I'm still going back and forth between leveling out my FX2 and putting some 33s on 18s on it or putting some drop shackles with 22s on it. Any pics of FX2s lifted? heres my truck:

I would drop. Tires will be cheaper. Then future you can get a turbo or supercharger.i know what it's like to not have a lot of money and be 17. Just be happy you have such a new nice truck. My first truck was $400 an 86 f250 and I loved that truck. Wish I still had it even though it was a giant rust bucket.

To lift or to lower was the hardest decision I had to make for my 2wd. You WILL get alot of crap about lifting a 2wd from some. I think a lifted truck would be so much fun to offroad, even mildly, but it is a VERY expensive route. You can get lowering parts one at a time for alot less. The choice is yours and dont forget to enjoy your truck.

man oh man do I feel your pain.
I love the way lowered trucks look, but I also love the way a mildly lifted truck looks. I have a 2wd reg cab short bed 5.0L. and I am at the same crossroads you are at. I already have a set of leveling pucks and a set of OEM lift blocks in the shed for it, I also already have a set of drop shackles :bangshead:
if I lower it, I know I will have to buy drop struts for the front and I want to slap some bigger wheels on it.
if I lift it, I'll keep the 18" wheels I have and just get bigger tires. so either way I am lookin at the same amount of money I just need to pick my poison.
