whats the easiest and cheapest way to balance out my truck? easiest i mean me and a bud doing it in a few hours...lowering the back or lifting the front?
 
Decide what you want.

The front lift: Get coil spacers, remove coild spring, install spacer and sprind DONE

The Rear drop: Flip the hangers. It"ll only cost you for the bolts and your time.

I would go lower but mine is dropped 5/6 so................If you go higher you can step up to larger/taller tires. Better handling would come by way of lowering it a few inches.

Yeah what he said. Personally I would lower the rear.

Ussually a good rule to follow is : if the truck is 2wd drop it, and if you have 4wd lift it.
 
Yeah, but the prerunner style trucks get me going to. Lift the front a few inches higher than the rear, some big meats and the wide fenders...............

Yes pre-runner = nice and fun, but to go back to the main post he asked for cheapest... And last I checked fiber glass fenders about 425 and then prep and paint... But then agian white fender are alwyas cool :icon_thumby:
 
pre-runner would be so friggin cool...i also saw online the drift truck aero-kits to buy online and i had to wipe the drool off my keyboard...too bad i dont have a couple grand to blow on it...lol...thanks for all the info...i still have no idea on what i wanna do lol

Link it up there buddy? I gots to see some pics.

Cheapest, yeah, drop the back by flipping the hangers. But once you start down either path, you WILL want to go higher/lower. It always happens.

Ok, I know which kit you are talking about now. I don't like that front bumper, the one they did for the Explorer looks much better IMO. I would scrape the snot out of that one, my 4x4 valence gets painted every other year because of the roads. If you think/plan that you might go lower, you may not want that kit.

James
 
i would raise the front for sure with that one...the roads around here suck and it would probably rip the bottom off
