Lowering kits

Well here it goes, I know I'm go to catch &hit over this question.
Does someone know where I can get a 2" lowering kit for my 07 f350 4X4?
I know i can use F250 block in the rear to level it, but I need something for the front.

Thanks

F-250 blocks will bring you down 2 inches in the rear.

These guys claim they make a kit that might give you enough drop.

As for taking cr@p over dropping your truck, don't listen to any critics. It's your truck, do what you want and make yourself happy.

One of my favorite bumper stickers: Praise the lowered!

As far as I know the front srpings on the f-250 & f-350 are the same if the truck has the same options. The trucks with diesel engines get certain springs, plow prep package, gets certain springs, stuff like that.

Like I said before though, why are you doing this? Just like the look, to hard to get in out, towing a 5th wheel? Cause some of the guys might have ideas of how to help you if you let them know. I realize now the way I worded it sounded bad, but I was actually trying to help you, not put you down.

why lower a 4x4? if you want a lower 350, opt for the non 4x4. keep in mind you need to watch the tire rub if you lower it.

Wife is 4 1/2 tall and try to life the kid in and out is a pain in the a$$
Plus I think it would look better a little lower.
I know people that have put f250 blocks to level it out and then air bags for hauling
5 wheels so the truck is not draging its a$$ down the road.

As for no 4x4, hey I live in Alberta Canada, we have Three seasons 8 months of winter, three months of crap and one month of sun and rain

Well a I took a look under the front end, well you only have 4 1/2" to play with.
So unless I want to make a custom c notch for the front, I don't think so.
So I'll go with f250 blocks and air bags.
