Unbroken, can you post pics of yours again for reference your truck being 2wd and using the same parts is closest to mine. All of these gorgeous trucks rebellious enough to go against the grain and show up with a drop instead of a level/lift of the average lemming. Wow, so impressive!

What are you guys with 305s close to rubbing on? Same for those saying they couldn't run 305s, what are your obstacles? I'm hoping to get a nice set of 22s (undecided what wheels, but will 100% be 22s), and was planning 305/40, but now you guys have me a little concerned haha. I've mixed and matched some bits and am a bit lower than just a Belltech strut, and once I get my rear notched to quit slamming the rear, kind of thinking about getting the drop spindles and removing the lift shackle from the Belltech flip kit to get the whole thing just a bit lower than it is already. Judging by where I am at, I'd probably be looking at about a 5/7 or so total drop if I do those, you guys think 305s are gonna give me problems? I'm just on stock Chrome Package 18s now, so not much to measure off of to see potential issues.

Side note, GORGEOUS trucks in here guys, well done!! Love going against the grain and not following the wannabe crowd (I know some of them actually go offroad...SOME being the operative word haha)!

I'm running 305-40-22 and wheels are a +30 offset. I'm not rubbing at all using a 3/6 drop. Back spacing most likely plays a role to that.

Wheel size also. There's no way I can clear a 305/35/24. Had to settle for 295/35's...sure wish the 305's would fit though.

For sure, you've got a extra 1" to deal with from 22 to 24s. Your build is by far one of my favorites Richard and can't wait to see your fenders and other future mods

Hey guys I lost my truck in Harvey and am hunting a new ride. I found this truck and have some quick questions about this truck it says its custom lowered in the listing. It also has SVT wheels is it possible that it was lowered by Ford or someone did it aftermarket? Does anyone know if Ford put out trucks like this one?

Ford hasn't lowered at truck from the factory since the Lightning years. It's definitely an aftermarket drop. Ford does sell Ground Force drop kits rebranded as Ford.
