LOWERING KITS
Does anyone know of a kit that can drop my xpo 3" front and 2" rear, I,m told because its an EB it will affect the 4wheel drive eventually,is this true.
I find the space from my new dubs to fender very unpealing.
These trucks are the bomb

Like the previous post mentions, there are several aftermarket kits (Belltech, etc.) for lowering your Expy.
Whether it's an EB model makes no differance. The things that DO make a differance is 2WD vs 4WD and if yours has the Automatic Load Leveling Suspension (air bags)
Grab a copy of 'Truckin' at the news stand, they cater to the lowered rides on buggy wheels and have many good 'How To" articals as well as many vendor ads.

LOWERING KITS
Youre in the same boat as me. Ive debated for some time to putting a drop on my Xped. The only thing is, it is my daily driver and i need the clearence in the winter time. Everyone is telling me to leave it alone, when i stepped up to the 20's it gave it the look i was looking for anyway.

i covered this a while back. you can lower your 4wd expy by buying 2wd heavy duty springs from ford or lincoln. you must also switch to 2wd rear shocks. the front can be lowered by cranking out the torsion bar spring to the height you want. i lowered my fronts by 1.75 inches. i also cut the rubbers to 50% height. kept the same shocks in the front. remember to have the alignment done after the changes. you will get a better ride and the handling is MUCH improved. good luck.
