Default '11 F150 screw limited - lowering
I'm wanting to lower my back side to be even with the front. a couple of questions:

1) What do I need to do?
2) Will this help, hurt or be neutral for the performace (i.e. 1/4 m speed)

2" drop shackle... I think our belltech guy here on the board has the best price.

By installing drop shackels, will it void the factory warranty of the truck?

Check to see if there is a block between the axle and leaf pack, if there is, buy new u-bolts and take the block out.
