Default McGaughys 2" 4" 4wd lowering kit 70010

Pulled My lowering kit a few years ago when I put my plow on. I lowered the truck when I put the Saleen 23" on (see other 4sale for Saleen wheels) to close the wheel gap some.

McGaughys p/n 70010 cost over $300 new; ASKING $100.00

As a dude with a 2/4 drop on his 4x4, it is really worth it just for the change in handling IMO.

Per here: https://www.suspensionsuperstore.com...gaughys-70010/

They list application as:
Applications-
2004-2008 Ford F-150
2WD, Extended Cab & Super Crew

Looking at the parts, it looks like they accomplish the lower up front with a different perch for the strut.

Shipping cost to Kansas, 66413 please

Edit, nevermind. They achieve the 4" rear drop with 2" shackles and they count the factory 4wd block as 2" more for a total of 4". Wont work for me.

Front drop is shorter springs
Rear drop is shackles and shock bracket; the blocks are not touched.

No way a shackle lowers the rear 4". There is no such thing as a 4" lowering shackle. Shock bracket relocator wont lower it either.

Removing the rear block on the 04-08 4x4 is almost 2" drop alone. 2" from the blocks and another 2" from the shackle sounds possible.
