Lowering my 08 f350??

dmistak617 · Jan 20, 2014

Really considering lowering my truck.. What all do I need to do it? I don't want it low low.. Just low enough to basically look like the back is leveled with the front. How much would it cost me to do this?? Thanks ! Here's a pic of my truck now

If it is still stock height front and back you can probably use f250 blocks in the rear to get the butt down as low as the front. The f250 blocks are right at 2" thick and the f350 are 4" I believe.

Just an opinion here, but I love the stance on your truck!

I dig OEM stance too, but I won't hate on you for lowering it. Good looking rig! I love the ECSB trucks

Bring the back down and ditch those steps and truck would be perfect

and get rid of the mudflaps. like the stock painted rims.

I agree with putting a smaller block in the back. If I were to do it again, I would take the block out of the back and not put one up front.

I'm getting ready to take my rear blocks and level kit out on my reg cab.

you'll prob need to go to a smaller block or lower the front a little if you want it to be level. No block and stock in front will sit front high. To the OP same advice to you. Go to a smaller block maybe. I think a 1.5" block would be about perfect

Ya, I wish I would have reverse leveled. Id agree ^^. Maybe that is what I will do when I get traction blocks. Go with a 1.5" block and take the 1" spacer out of the front.

What about going to lighter weights coil up front? Mine says it has the 5100 or 5200 lb front weight rating.... Would the 4800 coils be soft enough to drop it level with no rear blocks? Not trying to derail but could be good info for op too.

Yes 4800 and no rear blocks sits damn near level.

JrStroker · Jan 21, 2014

If the OP takes the rear blocks out and they are 4 inch pm me and I'll buy them. Or anyone else for that in fact.

5200lb springs and a 1inch block is level
4800lb springs and no block is about level
5600 lb springs and a stock f250 block is damn close too
4400 springs and a leaf pulled is leveled LOL

I'm actually gonna trim my 4800 a bit. It sits a hair higher in the front. With any weight in the bed it'll be easily noticeable. I'm still trying to figure out your directions dustin LOL

Thanks guys! Still got some thinking to do on this. I'm either lifting or lowering it. Working on performance parts first
