So I have a ground force 2/4 drop. I think the truck has the lowering coils up front. I would like to lower my truck another inch up front. Can I just buy these and they will lower my truck another inch? Are they much trouble to install?

I was wrong...sorry about that. I just got thru lowering mine down another 1" in front for a 5" drop and mine barely worked. The problem is the shaft isnt threaded enough. If you had the shaft machined down 1"-2" and more threads added it would work.
But as they stand stock KA41 is right...they wont even work with 2" coils.
Sorry guys for the misinformation on my part...benn awhile since I installed them.
Good news is Im at 5" drop now...2" spindles...1" coils...2" struts

JB, have you had the truck re-aligned? If so, is it correct? Also, what tires size do you have, and do you know what the fender measurements are?
Sorry for all the questions, going to be changing my setup soon, and am trying to collect all the info I can. I have a spreadsheet going with all the measurements vs.components, although I only have info from a couple trucks so far...
