I finally decided to lower my 53 f100 and think I got everything I need to do it hopefully but have 1 or 2 details to work out and looking for some advice. I am using Posies super slide front lowering spring and Mid Fifty main leaf only lowered and reversed eye (you use your existing springs with some leafs out and their main spring). My question is since the rear has the reversed eye I understand you have to flip the front spring hanger but I have heard you should switch sides they are on so right goes to left and left goes to right. Which way should I do?

Also since I am doing a 2 ½-3” drop I am debating what shocks to run. I was debating stock but also looking at the cpp ones. I also have seen mid fifty makes a longer shock mounting kit has anyone used this and any benefit?

 

You may already know this however, below is notes from MF which is the only thing I've heard in the past to do, hope this help.

Note: when using reversed eyes in rear, Flip forward spring hanger
to avoid binding of spring eye, raise it on frame for additional drop.
Don’t forget to drill a hole for spring pin removal

Note: Front Monos, Always remove the front round spring bumper
Rear Monos, Flip the forward rear Spring hanger to prevent binding.
Use stock eye rear mono with axle on top of spring for clearance.

 

I knew the spring hanger had to be flipped but I heard to switch the side as well so left gets mounted on the right and right gets mounted on the left. I was curious if anyone else heard that too.
