ive heard some negative things about that kit from some guys i trust with my life, part of the reason why fabtech doesn't make the kit anymore.

 

Depends what you try to do with the kit, it's a great street beater, but the moment you actually think it's long travel and try to jump with it, your putting your life in danger. And yea I'm not usually on general chit chat on there, I stick to just reading a lot of the build logs now haha.

 

Im not an extreme off roader by any means but i do go off road to get tp the good bike trails XD

 

As long as you treat it as a lift kit and nothing else you'll be fine, you just gotta know the trucks limitations.

 

oh i know lol

 

And I'm pretty sure the reason they stopped making it was because it was more considered a mid travel kit and for the price it cost when they first started you could almost do a proper long travel, so it wasn't too cost effective for what it was but now you can pick them up used for under like a grand and new is only a little more than the fabtech 7.5 if you can find them.

 

ive found a few but the guy i order stuff from hes calling his friend at fabtech to see if they have any in storage and get me a price on stuff

 

You are missing out, so much win with a huge level of stupidity. Great news source as well, i get my news quicker than any one i know

I have a very pathetic build thread over there in the Landcruiser section, i just wish i'd remember to update it occasionally

 

Haha I'll start checking it out the general chit chat more often, I used to only hop on there when I was bored in class, but lately I've been getting on there more just because of all the win. Between that site and dezertrangers it's enough entertainment to last days haha. I found a thread on pirate the other day of someone trying to say there dana 30 was so much stronger than a dana 60, that was full win without a doubt.

 

PM dieselmh for a pirate sticker. He usually sends them out for free.

 

i want one !! lol

oh and i got some good news today!!!! my dads friend that owns a cutom sand rail shop in cali has a sandrail with everything on it but motor and transmission.

and since my dad works for the largest high performance company in the world, and use to build motors for funny cars he has a 460 (900hp) ford big block sitting on his shelf at work now i just got to get a TCI Trans and ill be ready to rip and romp XD

 

Ha, I've gotta ask what are you possibly gonna do with a sand rail in mississippi? Why don't you just get a trans and drop that bad boy into your truck instead?

 

there are dunes along the mississippi river near my house XD and i asked that same question, wont work with computer, Id Kill myself or someone, and that motor in the front of my f150 it would sit with a major rake and i dont like a raked look

 

You're going to drop a 900 hp 460 in a sandrail? You do realize how terrible of an idea that is right?

 

In cali, that'd be like standard because it needs the power to eat through the dunes. In mississippi, well that's a different story it's either gonna end up just pure win or someones gonna die haha.
