Well, the time has come to place a lift kit on my f150.

I'm planning on running it with 37-38 in tires, so I require a 6 inch lift at least along with a body lift just for the tire clearance.

What is the good choices. I was looking at Fab Tech and Sky Jacker what are the better choices?

-What are the pros and cons?
-Does sky jacker have a sag to it?
-does a fab tech 6in lift fit a extended cab 1998 f150.
-Where is a good online store?

Thanks,
Zephyr

 

what do you mean by a "sag?" the fabtech is a true 6'' lift, the bolt holes for the lower control arms are dropped down a full six inches lower than stock via the two piece subframe, as well as the front differential and everything else.

the construction of the fabtech kit is the best out there for our 97-03 trucks, bar none. the arched crossmembers are made from 1/4'' thick steel, and are designed to provide maximum ground clearance.

the fabtech kit will fit any 97-03 F-150, but the front frame crossmember is probably going to have to be ground down some for the lift crossmember to fit.

 

Thanks! I been looking at the Fab tech the most and seeing as it was cheaper then the sky jacker I think I'll go with it.

 

Have heard that the fabtech the rear sits lower than the front but thats easily fixed with taller block

 

the Fabtech is the better lift of the two!

 

Definitely go with the Fabtech, mine is solid.

 

X2....I have had mine on for over 4 years now...Very happy with it
