Eh, buy what you want, modify it how you want. I really like the look of a mildly lowered truck.
I'm the kind of guy who leaves everything stock, but if I ever changed the ride height, I'd go down not up.

We've used Crown Suspension on all of our 2015-2016 150's. These kits are the real deal!

I found mine on eBay. If it exists, you can probably find it on there. Good luck, Jag

All links wont pull up for me keeps saying cant be found lol but i got the ones i have on now from ebay and they said they work on my truck but had to modify them and they did good till a few days after they started creaking so i just want some that use factory bolts and no noise issue that some one has used and can give a direct link or name part number..... And has any one used the ford performance ones on a 2wd does it give a 2 in drop cuz it says 1.5 but for 4wd but they have blocks so since 2wd dont shouldnt it be 2in on 2wd sry for the book lol i work at ford so i get a discount on them but wanna see if anyones used them and how r they

Ahhh, I see. I just tried the links in post #10 and #18 and they worked fine.

Crown Suspension Lowering Kits Lift Kits Airride Leveling Kits

If the link doesn't work for you...just copy and paste into a diferent tab in your browser. Or do a GOOGLE search for crown suspension.

Good luck!

I have 1 1/2" drop Ford Performance on mine. IIRC, someone has come out with 2" drops, that don't require notching the bed support crossmember directly over the shackle. Can't recall who that is.
When you installed them, did you slobber the bushings up with grease?
