Default Is a 1" lower in the front possible?

The reason I ask is because all you ever see for drops is 2/4 or 3/5 etc... I already removed the rear block from my FX4, but want to go a bit lower I'm thinking. So my plans are (ish) 2" drop shackles in the rear, and a 1" drop in the front. Total of 3.25 in the back should put mr right near level with a 1" drop. Anyone got any ideas?

To drop the front an inch just get some djm 2" lowering springs. Even tho it says 2" it only drops 1" if you have stock suspension but thats with the 97-03 f150's, im not 100% on the newer model f150's tho but ask the user DJM/BELLTECH DIRECT he sells and knows alot about dropping our trucks

yes they fit fine just they give more of a drop but at 4 inch level will not align.
