Current Build Specs:
  • 6” Fabtech Suspension Lift
  • 3” Performance Accessories Body Lift with Gap Guards
  • 4.88 Genuine Gears

Plan on getting a Fabtech steering stabilizer eventually.
Getting my edge from my 2007 lease truck reprogrammed to a Gryphon in the next few weeks also so it will work for this '01, thanks to Power Hungry Performance.

Installed 6” Fabtech suspension lift kit in this thread I made over in the 97-03 forums.

Stay Tuned!! :lurk:

Can't wait to see it completed

Sundevil2188 Mar 26, 2009 06:57 PM

haha nice. Mine had about 5% left on them when I bought my AT's. How hard was it to install the Fabtech? You look like youve got a pretty decent shop to work in...and a lift.

The Fabtech install was a walk in the park. Did that at home in my shop without a lift. Just some air tools.

I work at a Ford dealership so there are plenty of lifts to use. That is where me and a tech from work are doing the body lift at. I can't wait!!

Thanks! Your truck has been one of my inspirations in choosing this setup.

:lol: Cecil you've gone above and beyond this club. If anything, I'd love to ditch the setup I'm running now and go your route.

well you can always wait till im tired of my set up and ill sell it as a kit... Its a bolt on.

It would take alittle modification to fit your truck but not too much.

eventually ill be going 2.5 ton 4 link and 54's but thats probably 5 or 6 years away.

I really like the look of your truck though, cant wait to see another one similar.

keep up the good work.
