http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/97-03...=p4506.c0.m245
just wondering if anyone has tried this 1000 is hard to beat. I have searched and could not find any pictures of this. I already have a add a leaf and the tbars cranked. Also is this a four or five inch lift its hard to tell.

I agree with Wandell. I've read that this lift is decent for a mall crawler, but if you actually off road a good amount you might want to look for a better lift kit.
On a side note, finally going to replace that 300,000 mile OEM suspension, eh?

I think you will be really happy and glad you payed the extra money for the Fabtech. The 370,000 mile F-150 (that is amazing) deserves only the best, especially if you still plan on keeping it for a while, which I assume you do.

I love the stance of your truck. What kind of mileage are you getting with all that?

where i agree on getting the best suspension you can afford, also look into how long the truck will be around. 370k is a lot. and im sure you take care of the truck for the miles to get that high, but sometimes things happen beyond your control. although, im sure IF something were to happen you could sell the aftermarket parts if you had to.
for me, since my truck is not used everyday and around me there is no legal place to go 4 wheelin, i would probably opt for the less expensive kit. but then again, i did the complete opposite with my jeep when i had it, lol.
