    V6 lowering springs?

    Guys, I want to lower the front of my truck some, and I keep seeing the V6 lowering springs, are these just springs out of a v6 truck? if so, it should be a direct swap correct? sorry to sound dumb but I'm not much into lowering trucks too much, but thanks in advance!

    yeah itll be a direct swap. v6 springs are a tad softer and may go lower. But I mean most people just cut v6 springs, they are all the same height from the factory

    alright.

    yea that is the only draw back on those.. over time with the six banger springs you will start to sag, and right off the get go you will see alot of camber wear. i just instaled a belltech spring in my friends truck.
    Belltech part number 23408. they are a 3 inch spring that come with a one inch spacer.
