After much debate...

I've decided to quit settling for less in terms of what I want to do with my truck. I am gonna save up a little more money and order a 6" Fabtech Lift. The best price I have seen so far is $1400. That seems pretty good to me. Hopefully this could be possible in a few months!

I'm doing the same thing. i could afford a spacer/body lift route right now, but i'd rather save up for the better quality option. I'm sure my truck will appreciate that too.

Whoa really? What shop? The only place around here I am familiar with I believe is called 4 Wheel Drive Performance in Manchester, CT. I was just gonna order the kit offline at some point and maybe do it myself, or have them install, but let me know please.

Hey any word on that yet? Also is that where you got your's from and did he install it for you or did you do it yourself? Just curious because $400 is a really good price, so if he did it for you I just wanted to make sure you were happy with the work. Thanks!

Ok thanks! I would really like to try and install it myself to save money, I just don't want to mess anything up. I think my father might be willing to help me if I can convince him and we have plenty of tools and jacks. Also my friend lifted his F350 on his own with some additional help and he said he could try and help as well. Is there any tools I need that I wouldn't normally have....like do I need a Pitman arm puller? My friend said I would need that? or torsion bar remover? How long did it take you?
