Buying Lift Today: Skyjacker or Fabtech

Fabtech. Skyjacker doesn't have those support bars for the front diff assembly (connecting the rear crossmember), and I can tell you from experience that they really are functional in keeping everything straight. Doesn't skyjacker stack rear blocks as well??
