04 F150 4x4 ( RIZE OR FABTECH )
 
I am looking to lift my 04 F150 4x4. Is there any benifits to Rize or Fabtech and will these lifts still need a leveling kit afterwards ? What tire size will I be able to put on ? I am partial to Goodyear Wrangler MTR's if that helps... Thanks for your help...

Both are excellent kits and you can't go wrong with either. I'd also consider the RCD lift. The biggest advantage I see between them is the appearance of the Rize. It's crossmember looks like a work of art. The Rize is also availble in an 8 and 12 inch version if you want to go really big.

rize is better then fabtech. with the 8" rize you can fit 37's and with the fabtech 6" you can only fit 35's, unless you want to do like alot of members do on this site and stack a leveling kit on top of the fabtech lift to fit 37's... but depending on your budget either lift is awesome :thumbsup:

get the rize lift, if you go with a 6" lift your gonna wanna go bigger, not like your not wanna go bigger with the rize but you wont regret it.

Rize, its just that easy, ride amazing no spacer you Cv axles are perfect, and can always add a spacer if you want to go bigger

Are you talking about the Rize 6 inch or 8 inch kit?

If you're talking about the Rize 6" kit than I'd just go with the 6" RCD or 6" Fabtech with Dirt Logics. But if you're considering the Rize 8" than you should just get that since it'll be two inches bigger and comes with the steering set-up that Rize has. It's just about how much you want to spend. Neither lift kit will require a leveling kit up front, although most will need something in the rear like an add-a-leaf or bigger block.

Ugh... Some would say the exact opposite.

Definitely would go bigger than 39.5's with all that lift.
