A HD F-150?

You are going to lower (how) the Expy?
The wheels really do look good!

We were looking at the new '04 Super Duty yesterday. On the showroom they had 3 Expy's with aftermarket stuff, including 22's on all 3. My wife, the one that keeps saying "why can't you just buy it and drive it", got this grin, and commented on how good the new Expy looked with the wheels. I had to agree the new ones look much better than the previous (ours) with after market goodies.

That really does look sharp!!

I dont think they have a kit out to lower it yet, do they? The 03 is different than the previous ones. As soon as I drove off the lot, I drove it to The Maxx, and got them to fix her up!! Looks so so much better. Cant wait to drop it a little bit. I am gonna put magnaflow catback on it first though.

As soon as I figure out how to lower it I will let you know.

If it's still a torsion bar front suspension, then you can lower it somewhat by cranking down the torsion bars. You'll probably have to trim the bump stops also. Wheels and tires look good.

I dont have a speedo error because the diameter of my setup is the same as the stock setup.

I noticed the other day that Eibach's website shows lowering springs for the 03 Expy. It was listed as a 1.6 inch front/1.8 inch rear lowering springs I beleive. The 03 Expy went to 4 wheel independant suspenstion with coil over shocks on all 4 corners. I didn't see a price listed for the springs and this is the only lowering kit I've seen for an 03-04 Expy. I assume all you have to do is remove the coil overs and replace the springs.
