Ford Taurus X Lowering Kits

What is a Lowering Kit?

Lowering kits are modified suspension systems that reduce your truck’s ride height. Offered in various sizes, drop kits can adjust your truck’s height slightly or lower it dramatically to the ground. Whether you crave that sleek, lowered look or seek enhanced ride handling, we have the perfect kit for you.

Why Lower Your Ride?

Aesthetics

Like lift kits and leveling kits, lowering kits are primarily installed for aesthetic purposes. Lowering kits bring your ride closer to the ground, minimizing wheel gaps and making for an aggressive and sporty appearance. Especially when paired with oversized wheels and low-profile tires, a lowering kit will set your truck apart from the crowd.

Performance

As with any modified suspension, performance is key. Lowering kits improve on-road performance due to lowering the center of gravity and including stiffer dampers/springs. These qualities allow your ride to better handle tight corners and windy roads without excessive body roll.

Functionality

Often overlooked but just as important is functionality. While you won’t win any off-roading competitions in a lowered truck, you’ll certainly have an edge over lifted rigs on the street. With a low ride height, you’ll be able to easily navigate low parking garages and drive-thrus. And with your ride’s newly lost ride height, loading cargo in the bed will have never been easier.
