yup.
im trying to get more info about the kit now but since its still in R&D its a little tough. an axle swap kit would be ideal since i could do it in an afternoon in my driveway as opposed to finding someone who could weld it for me...

Me as well. Bought the truck with the intent to definetly get it down low. Didnt realize noone had a drop kit for it yet. Belltech is the front runner right now. I imagine it will be a flip kit for the rear and upper and lower control arms for the front and done deal. Instant drop kit. Fingers crossed.

Sweet. That's a lot of hardware for a reasonable price ($1,799.10). Hell you can't buy (2) Ranger XLT / Lariat Tail Lamp Assemblies for that price!

For those interested... here's a link to the Control Freaks site. Lot's of photo's: https://www.freakride.com/product/ford-ranger-suspension-systems/

My god... huge fail. Lowering a car or truck for better street or track handling is great, but I hate it when people molest vehicles into garbage with grotesque wheel camber angles.

Here is the checklist The vehicle MUST have the following:

• Absolutely vertical wheels, rear and front.
  
• Tires the correct size for the rims
• Wheels that don't extend past the fenders
• Wheels that don't tuck inside the fenders
• A minimum of 2" suspension travel with proper springs and stops
• No tire contact at full lock at the suspension extremes

Done right, I respect a good street truck. But damn, the world is full of idiots concerned with "stance" and very few do it right.

gotta agree here. that truck is really stupid that is some extreme negative camber. Also the LS engine makes me wanna puke. It's the builder's choice what he does but to me an LS engine in a Ford is just asinine. I don't get why ppl like that engine so much anyway it's a push rod OHV 2 valve there are so many better engines. I'd take an old Ford cammer engine over an LS anyday.

Those negative camber trucks are parking lot racers.

lol, i understand the hate on the LS motor and the look of the drift cars, but there is some mad skill involved.
