Hey guys, i've used the search option and i didnt find anything, but i would like to make my XLT(flareside) look like a lightning (no mecanical mod).

I am wondering how would i drop my truck ? I know there some rear shackle to lower the leaf, but what about the front ?? Torsion key ? if i ''uncrank'' them, will it lower the truck enough or should i change them as well ?

Of course, i would removed the push bar and the back rack. And im gonna need new tire as well...

Any tips would be greatly apreciated...



Here is a pic of my truck.

 

You can do springs and shackles for the drop. Are you 2 or 4 wd??

 

4wd comrade !

 

Not sure if you can drop a 4x4 to as low as a lightning, as for torsion bars, I think I read somewhere that you shouldn't uncrank them after being cranked up for a certain period of time.

 

i dont mind that much to not having it as low as the lightning. But still want to drop 1-2 front and rear. Even with the tire, ill drop a little since i'm on 31'' now..

For the torsion bar, you mean it could be bad for the bars or for the keys ?

 

Bars I believe.
