Yeah i was retarded and didn't look. Oh well I will get bigger meats over the summer like i said and it will look a little better... still going to go with fat tires out back little skinny up front just bigger sidewall...

Yeah wish ford would have been smart about this and put the rest of the kit on with side skirts and a rear bumper to match...

Yeah going lower than this would be getting shorter springs up front and some chevy life block to lower the rear 2 more inches. Or just bag it out....

You could still flip the rear shackles to get another 2" out back without resorting to blocks. Blocks are bad, mmmkay?
