getting a f150 to lay up front?!? !!HELP!!

whats up guys ok so my buddy has a 99 or 2000 style ford f150 lightning and he wants to bag it on 22" wheels now this is my first ford to bag i have bagged many many chevys but anyways what is needed up front to make it lay just so the front bumper and side skirts are pretty much on the ground it dont have to lay frame cuz remember its a ford lightning so it has the big front bumper and side skirts..any info or pictures wuld help thanks!!

DJM LCA,and cups will tuck but not lay frame and its pretty cheap $250 or so for lower control arms and $100 for the cups. this way you wont have to relocate to much

yea sounds like a good idea, like i said he will be happy if just the front bumper and side skirts are close or lay on the ground so cool i'll tell him to get DJM LCA and i think he already has the cups..but wit the cups u have to run a 2500lbs bag right so it dont rub?

yah i'm runnin the DJM LCA and cups and my truck almost lays out but once i get my 20's i will buy the drop spindle to lay out on!!!

i have steped the lowers and shortened them an inch and layed frame on a 265 35 22. ill post a pic as soon as i can

dont forget tranny x member... it hangs down.... make it flat even if you not trying to lay... more driving clearance

upper mount(not finished)lower mount not finishedthis does lay on 22's but not anything bigger than a 265 35 22 lower shorted 1 in and steped 3 in and still aligned properly (no drop spindles)

i need to post some pics of my setup since its done there is another thing to can ream out you stock spindles and flip you lower balljoint, move your upper control arm brackets up 3in and flip your tie rods and you can lay on 22's with out spindles you will also have notch you lower control arms if you run stocks and just depends on if you run cups on the top cause if you do you will have to cut the down to about 2in tall so your bag has more room to compress!!!

the front bumper should clear with about 3-4 inches when layed flat. I just finished an 02 screw with a lightning bumper cover and when he lays his tranny cross member it clears fine

I SLIGHTLY MODIFIED MY DJM LCA'S AND NOTCHED MY SPRING POCKETS ACCORDINGLY AND IM RUNNING SLAM 2600'2 UP FRONT AND IT LAYS HARD ON 20'S. IT WAS A PAIN IN THE ASS.
