lowering

[brad geno]

What would be a fair price if I had my ST lowered about 2" all the way. What kind of price should I expect so I know if these guys are blowing smoke.



Thanks

You could do it yourself. The lowering kit maybe 125.00? Take you about an hours time as well. Don't forget to get an alignment afterwards.



Thanks,

SST

How to lower your Sport Trac:

I lowered mine using the Explorer Express kit, and Michelle's instructions. It has what you need to lower the front and rear. Get an alignment afterwords. You'll need it. I did mine myself, and it took a couple hours since I had to wrestle the pin on the passenger side block into the mating hole. I have 3 inch blocks, and I also removed the front torsion bolts completely.



Hint: A good hydraulic shop jack is your best friend.

with everyone lowering their st's, are you using regualr shocks, or the edelbrocks that are designed for the lowered stance.



i understand it that if you use regular shocks, the compression on the shock from the reduced height mitigates most of the benefit of a regular shock, as most of the work from shock is in the first 2 "



wouldnt the valve on a regular shock be continually compressed, and not work as designed ?

Right now I'm using a regular Monroe Reflex for stock height. I have a pretty stiff ride right now, but I kinda like it. I might switch to shocks for lowered STs sometime, though.

Anyone have any updated information on this process using the camber adjusters that come with the explorer express kit?
