Does anyone have the SJ 6"? Want to know if its a good lift to put on my 2008 F-150.

 

It appears to be a good kit but I think there are better choices.

 

since everybody is going to say that you should get fabtech i would like to know what makes it better than skyjacker?

 

fabtech seems to be the 6" lift of choice around here

edit: ^beat me to it

 

I have had my skyjacker on for almost 5 years now and its holding up fine. Gonne re paint my leaf springs bc they are squeaking thats about it. Gonna finally replace my shocks after 40k on them. But otherwise its a great kit. Comes with coilovers and replacment leaf springs if you get that package which i recommend

 

I was thinking on the same sj lift w/35 1250 tires, I have a 2004 f150 with 4.5 liter engine, would this be to much on the engine/trans?

 

Most people think the Fabtech is a little higher quality. That's not a knock on Skyjacker, just a compliment to Fabtech.
Davidnoah, what gears do you have? Also, you made a typo. Do you have a 5.4 or 4.6 liter engine? You also have to consider how you use your truck. If you do a lot of heavy towing/hauling you are probably gonna have to regear.

 

Sorry 4.6/ stock gears

 

What are the stock gears? If they are 3.73's you can probably live with 35's if you don't tow/haul anything heavy.

 

i have one on my 2000, and i love it. great ride.

 

Personally I think Pro Comp makes a better kit, but if you are 4wd I'd get the 4" rancho.
