The camber was unacceptable even with a 1 inch drop in the rear. Plus the lightning is much higher than a regular F150 and since it came from a sport truck, I wanted to lower it both were looks and for handling.
Truck looks amazing... Just wondering if you made the suspension lowering system adjustable or it is just set for the amount you wrote before?!?!
Honestly, it's a little bit of trial and error. I lowered it the maximum amount at first but the rear suspension was sitting on the bump stop. I did not want a rigid suspension so we lifted it up little by little. It's currently at a 3 inch drop right now in the rear. The front is down as far as it will go but I think I will end up lifting it an additional inch. it does well and looks great but I would like a little more cushion so it doesn't ride like a low rider. The variable suspension settings that you can do on the app really nice, it strengthens or weekends the shock electronically.
true, certainly for the speedo you wouldn't notice but for odometer and MPG even small % can make a difference...your miles per kw are likely artificially high now by about 0.05 so maybe 2.35 instead of 2.4

Where did you take to get aligned? I’ve taken to 2 places and both said they can’t do it. Would rather not have Ford take care of it since it’s clearly modified
Yeah. Definitely are. The struts should never lower more than 1" inch. The suspension just can't handle a deep drop. The Eibach kit is much better. You also risk binding the lower suspension bolt. It's rigid. The Eibach kit has a ball and rod setupAppreciate the response. I did the beltech struts in conjunction with the eibach springs. Stance looks great but think I have to raise it. Half shafts are on upward angle and ride is rough (it appears I’m on the bump stop…)
