confused bout my lift

i have the basic fabtech lift. i havent opened the boxes so i dont know what is in it. do i use my same coilovers? i was asked how i was gunna get six inches without changing the coils. i have a 2.5 AS spacer also. what im asking is, Is the basic fabtech lift kit that i have going to give me the six inches without new coilovers? and will my i still be able to use the 2.5 AS spacer? bottom line.... if i have the 1500 dollar fabtech lift at 4wheelonline.com, is that all i need to achieve 6 inches and still add my 2.5 AS spacer? thanks fellas

Yes you will get 6" of lift. Here is what your kit looks like (i don't have the 4 shocks in this pics).



About the 2.5" spacer, that's up to you. Just remember the kit was not designed for this, but who's to say it will be an issue. A lot of members are running this setup without any issues.

i personally wont be... my dad owns a body shop and has lifts and all. and an employee has done suspension stuff for years so im pretty sure it wont be a problem. between my dad and him it should be aight. the employee said it wont be bad. he read over the instructions and said it will be fine.

The basic Fabtech lift does come with new coilover shocks up front. They offer their heavy duty Dirt Logic coilover shocks as an upgrade option.
