Smile Lowered and level

Greetings all,
Just had to show my baby off, I've spent the last few months moving and modding, Here's a before and after of my '03 F-150 XLT Supercab shortbed.

Long story, but I put on a set of DJM 2in Shackles, added 2in DJM lowering front springs, added 2in DJM Rear Hangers, changed the rear hangers to the 1in Lowering mounting hole, switched back to the stock factory shackles to get the rear end level with the front. Added some shims and got a front end alignment and it's riding nice and level.

FAR6,
Thanks, I load a lot of sorta fragile items in and out of the back through the side opening Windoors and the extra few inches it's lowered certainly makes reaching in easier.

hopefully, it's not lowered enough to cause problems in MN winters...<G> It's my 24/7/365 daily driver for work and recreation.
