I want to lower my 2000 f150 just enuf to make it differnt from everyone else without puttig in a lowering kit.Can I cut my springs? or buy a new set of lowered springs,maybe 2-3 in.and still keep stockm shocks and still have it alingable. To make a long question short ,can it be done without 500+dollars for that 2-3inches?

If you can get a few of your buddies to help, you can do for about $350 + the cost of an alignment. This includes new shocks which you will need.

Well theres always the option of cranking the torsion bars for some lift, is it possible to relax the bars to lower them?
