from what I've been told by Fabtech... the compression struts are merely cosmetic and provide no support! Perhaps RC didn't think they needed to be there at all?

I now how it is to have parts missing! You might have read my topic about missing cam bolts and washers in my Fabtech lift!

Truck looks good though

Cheers

It looks like Rough Country has added them to their kit since I bought mine. I don't think you can find them for 1200 anymore. The RC lift doesnt use cam bolts, just regular M18 bolts.

So almost a month later the parts finally got shipped for my RC lift, Im not to sure which supplier the shop ordered from but, Order was put in on the 8th of July and today is the 5th of Aug. He got the lift in 3 days but had some steering parts on backorder. So maybe it will be done by this week. Almost a month is a long time to wait for you truck to get lifted.

Yea my parts came in about 10 or 12 days. Are you doing different wheels? I'm guessing the +30 offset will look a little narrow and your tires will probably rub on the knuckles if they are very wide.
