Deleted stock parts from Fabtech install

Is anyone installing a 6" Fabtech soon on a 2003 screw 4x4?
I want to uninstall mine and I am looking for the stock parts that are discarded. Let me know, i'm willing to pay for them. Also, anyone interested, make me a descent offer and you can have the lift when I remove it. I just bought this truck and I prefer the stock height on 20's. I am not into the off road appearance.

the only parts i can think of offhand that the 6'' fabtech deletes are the stock sway bar endlinks, the oem steering knuckles, the axle dust shields, a frame crossmember, and the oem length shocks/u-bolts.

nonetheless, the oem steering knuckles will not be cheap brand new. your best bet is to swap parts with whoever you buy the kit from. $700 is a fair asking amount for it.

$700 would be a fair selling price for someone to buy the lift. labor to uninstall it will probably be like $500. try to find a buyer who can uninstall it with you, and swap parts with. like i said, there's not too many parts you need, but the oem steering knuckles are really expensive.

well i hope i am close enough to someone that wants to swap.
nevertheless, i downloaded the installaiton instructions from Fabtech, which i plan to do in reverse, but wanted to have the oem parts to put back in place.

95 south, florida
jhens4, seriously. this truck is going to be a project that i dont want to take months to complete. i got it at an auction really cheap, and didnt have the option to inspect thoroughly, but i still feel it was worth it. body and int is fine, not running and drive shaft is missing so .................

i've restored a '92 mustang that was in worst condition and whenever i drive it, ALWAYS get approached if i want to sell or compliments, the long looks, had a patrol car pull me over one time for no REAL reason, officer said my tints were dark, but still didnt write me up. the stop turned into a convo about the mustang.

anyway, i'm not feeling the 6" fabtech, i tend to lean more towards stock with a touch of uniqueness and personalization
