Here are some pics of the out come, and some measurements.
Before -32.75
After - 34.5
This is puting it back to the factory setting, not cranking them.
Now some pics;

What Dallis did, was put in '07 older style keys, and I assume he also swapped in 07 and older rear 2.5" blocks. '08 Keys are clocked differently a few degrees, and in the back theyve got 1.5" blocks.
DALLIS!! AWSOME!! What!?!?? No comparo pics of the keys?? You need to post this info in the '08 get to the bottom of this thread...

I think they did this when they revised the front bumper valance in 08 to claim to get better gas milage. Changed the keys to lower the front to make it a little more aero dym to.

hey guys, sorry about not being on much, my comp is down and im at my GF's place right now and dont have the pictures on this one.
Hey billy, the numbers for the keys are the ride height forum:
08/04/2003- part number is F5775B328B
- my price in CND is $84.00 ea.
06/04/2007- part number is 8L575B328A
- my price in CND is $36.00 ea.
in my opinion , phone the wreckers and recyclers in your area, there much cheaper then from the dealer. i did the #1 bar and key install at the same time, deffinatly worth the extra money, and you have them all apart already.
there a Ford dealership item only, or like i said above....wreckers.
