I think Edges may look better lowered because of the monotone paint scheme. It just seems more of a pain though since they are lifted from the factory. Ford should off the Edge paint style on XLT's.

I'm the lifted type, but lowerings fine with me it that's what you're into. I want to offroad, so "up" is the only way to go. However, I'm offroading a 2WD, so that should give you an idea of how screwed up I am!

Welcome, also! :)

U went from lifted to slammed then always glad to see a fellow lowrider. How u liken the bags so far it'll ride rough for a few hundred miles then it'll break in and be smooth wuts ur raise time mines at aboy 3-4 seconds

i actually havent driven it yet with the bags yet. ive got to touch a thing or two on my 4link then i have to plum the system and wire it up. then shorten the drive shaft the put the gas tank in the bed. still have quite a bit to do it but im on hold right now cause my dash is being wrapped and radio bezel being painted.

and yes kurt i need to change my sig now havent really thought about it.
and for yall that dont know kurt (92 ranger) ended up with my lift kits and tires and all.
