Default Crown 3/4

Anyone running with 3/4 or crown 2/3. Trying to see if springs and socks are good, lifetime warranty and US made. I've tried biotech, djm, springtech, and SVT on focus and a 95 98 now got regular cab 07. Help would be awesome. Thanks

I had the crown 3/5 kit on my '08 and the lower arm was literally riding against the frame. For 3 inch springs it must have dropped the front end 5 inches, no bueno. I swapped them out with the DJM 4 inch kit and problem solved. For the price of the crown springs and the two front tires you'd have to replace sooner than later, just go with the DJM kit from the jump. My 2 cents

Yep, you know once you start you'll always want to be lower. Good luck with your truck.

Sooooo sexy popping turtles off the highway is easy like that. Used to pop turtles( reflectors they use in Seattle). With my 77 Monte Carlo back in the day. My 98 Ecab had 4/5, I miss it.😁

Hey darkside, that's looking good. How are you gonna do the front, that's always the scary part.
