98 Transformation Thread
worth a shot. if i went the spindle route i would be doing both so id be spending about 600 on that then there arent many options or do the 7.5" which costs idk so.. i got a while to think about it
ya time is the matter. I wanna go the spindle route for now till I get my LT kit from camburg. but before that...Im workin on gettin my eaton blower setup, full conversion for my pickup, its a steal of a price.. thats 1800.
could you get a quick link. and is that just for the front end or front and back? wonder how much it would cost to get it put on. what else would there be to put it on? any extensions or anything ?
is that a special or a general price cuz if thats gonna last im may have to do that. out the door in this case is shipped? what about in the store cuz they have one in houston
They dont have it on the internet. You have to go there and talk to the guys at the store. I have one in SA. Just go in there and tell them you have a 98 2wd 150(fits the 01 too) and that you want a fabtech lift. They will ask you about the crossmember lift or the spindle lift. Just tell them you want the crossmember one.
It comes with coils, shocks, drop down crossmembers, spindles, blocks and U-bolts, and all necessary hardware. Some trucks need a driveshaft extension. If you do.. its like $40 installed.

yea i wouldnt imagine it would be too tough but usually out-the-door means installed. does that include tax? ill have to see if i can come up with the cash around christmas and then do the BL gear and 7.5" at the same time next spring as well as 38"s haha
I am working on gears right now..
4:56 ford racing
what are you looking at on those? and what are you waiting for to do your lift? i forgot all the stuff you said in another thread and dont feel like searching for it now
Well.. right now I have basically new 33's. I could easily get another two years out of them, but I will probably be taking them off and selling them. I am trying to do everything at one time too. I really need a programmer because my speedo is already 8mph off. After that I need to get bigger tires somehow, and I dont plan on paying $2,500 for a set. The gears are going to run me about $300(including parts and everything.) I found a place to install them for $400. Before I get the tires and new lift put on I am going to get my roof repainted. The texas heat is killing it, and after its lifted(again) it wont fit in the painting booth.
Other than that big mess of stuff. There are a few things here and there that I wanna do too. So its really a toss-up. My main priority is the lift though.

thats why i got my tires used. i paid just about what one costs new and ill still get at least a yr out of them and can use them as spares later on. but new ones are gonna kill the wallet.
another thing on our trucks im pretty sure the speedo isnt corrected by a tuner its only corrected by changing a physical gear that runs about 200 at the dealer.
is it still fixed after you returned it to stock? and i was told the only way to do it was that gear? got any pics? they dont have any on the site
