I don't think I'd have the ***** to cut a frame on such a nice/new truck like that LOL.

I really like the look for it, maybe an 1in lower and it would be ideal.

And I can never get around the weird spark plug idea ford had for those 6.2.

Yeah, 2 plugs per cylinder is an interesting concept.

There's no doubt I was nervous about cutting the truck and I agree about the spark plugs its crazy when it cost $170 to put NGK plugs in it. I've always been a ford guy mainly because around home everyone runs SBC or ls trucks and I just want to stand out even tho it can be a pain in the a$$.
Once I get my new wheels and tires on I'll see how the truck sits with 20x10 and 305/50/20 nitto 420. If I can I'd like to lower it 3/5

To me it wasnt the two spark plug concept, as the chrylser hemi's have been doing it for many years now. Even some merc's have 3 plugs per cylinder.

It was more so the way they ran the plugs in the cylinder head. It's a waste spark system because the coil on plug in the top of the head has a secondary wire the runs down to the side of the block. Must be to get a better complete burn out the fuel having the 2nd plug in a totally different spot.
