6 Inch Fabtech with Dirtlogics

How is the ride with the Dirtlogic coilovers? I just spoke to a rep at Fabtech today and they are not using the Fabtech front struts anymore. They are sending out the stage 1 with spacers. I guess they are developing a bilstein strut, but won't ship those for a few months. Sounds like the Fabtech struts were junk. So the only choice I have with the Fabtech is coilovers really. I'm afraid the ride will be rough.

I have the coilovers. They're not bad...a little stiff. I found that the added stiffness gave me more confidence in high speed turns. It's not a bad "stiff" by any means. I think my truck handles a lot better now than it did when stock. Well, maybe not NOW...but when I had a 6" and 35's.

I think they shouldn't of sent any of the stage 1 kits with spacers and just release the new and improved strut and made a transition. I am sure the strut that came with it before is better than a used stock strut with spacer. I hope they adjusted the price point for that period of time aswell.

yeah the ride with coilovers is a little stiffer but then again like said you can handle turns with more confidence and idk i like my coilovers. I got the skyjacker lift and they are perfect.

I got to drive one with the Stage 1 kit and 35's. Holly crap. What a pile of poop. The rep at Fabtech said the Stage II rides a little stiffer. I can't imagine. Does the Pro Comp also ride as stiff?
