so after being towered over at every light i decided i cant take it anymore and am just going to have to deal with it and just dusch out the money to get a lift. so with this in mind i have been doing reserch all day and was wondering what everyone thought about these two kits. are they good?reliable?reccomended? anyways i would like to hear what you guys think possibly see some pictures anything? suggestions? best prices? maybe a better kit thanks

 

I've never heard anything bad about either kit.

 

so youve heard of people running the 7.5 cst because i know fabtech is a favorite around here ut was wondering on the cst. do you know of anyone on the forums with the cst 2wd?

 

Both are good kits but go with the bigger of the 2

I dont think anyone on here has a CST on a 2wd.....I would get the CST though maybe you could be the 1st

 

well are you going with 35's? or 37's?

 

Hey wandell do you think I could run black hulks -25, 20x10, 4.5 bs with either of these lifts. I have a 06 2wd

 

I dont think he could fit 37's with just the 7.5" on a 2wd. 37's barely fit on a 8" lift for a 4wd so i doubt they would with that much on a 2wd. They would though with a 2" spacer or adjustable coilovers on the 7.5" though

 

Hey seth You have the wheels I want!! Do you have any complaints about them. Rubbing issues? Do you think they will fit my 2wd with a 6 inch lift and 35 12.50's? Truck looks great any more pics?

 

I agree with Seth19. I'd try to fine a 9 inch wheel with at least 5 inches of backspacing. The 10 inch width and 4.5 inch bs on the Hulks will cause fitment issues.

 

thanks all! i am currently running 285/70/17's so whats that 33X11.50 or something like that but when i get the lift i am hoping to get at least 35's maybe toyo's or nitto mt's. so you think the 7.5 of the two is best? any idea on where to find the best price on either? ohh is it true you can adjust the fabtech to be about 7"? thanks everyone for your input
does anyone have any pictures of their 2wd with a fabtech or cst thanks

 

I cant tell you for sure, but Im pretty sure mine wouldnt be the best choice for what your trying to do. But i could be wrong, and no i have no rubbing issues. Here are some more pics though.



Here is a good one of the hulks

 

Next to a 6" with 35's

 

seth man i love your truck thats what im planning on doing with mine. you dont rub at all even when your offroading? and do you have backspacing?

 

seth. I wish they made the hulk in a 9 inch wide wheel but they dont. I dont see why they cant just make a black wheel with a chrome lip like the hulks. You know of any?

 

i vote the CST just because they make a great product (no that fabtech doesnt) and you will have something different then every guy with a lifted F150!!!!! go with the CST and the Fox coilovers that are offered with the kit (if you have the money) if you crank those things up you could sit around 9.5"s of lift. and may be able to fit 37s if you want too.
