I'm going to put a 6 inch lift on my 2006 4X4 F-150. I'm trying to decide between Rough Country, Procomp, and Fabtech. I will be doing some off-roading, so durability matters. Those three seem to be the most affordable (under $2,000). I'm leaning toward the fabtech basic kit with front spacers and performance back shocks then maybe upgrade to dirt logic front and back some day. Anybody have anything good or bad to say about any of these 3 lifts? Or a suggestion for a different company?

 

Anybody?

 

I have a basic fabtech kit on my 2008 screw I got it from 4wheelparts for 1600$ I plan to put king coilovers it later. I like it alot took a week to install tho due to missing parts that 4wheelparts took care of the slow part was shipping from fabtech as they didnt stock the parts i needed.

 

Have you off-roaded with it any? and what is the set up in the rear? Stacked blocks or one big block or add a leaf or what?

 

1 block in the rear. I have not offroaded with it yet ive only had it on for about a week I do have 35 12.50 18 nitto trail grapplers and I had to cut the front valance becouse the rub when you turn. The kit feels solid I wana go with coilovers for a nicer ride and to bump the truck up anouther inch or two.

 

How tall is the rear block? you take the stock block off right?

 

4 wheel parts has the pro comp stage 1 lift for $250 off right now.

 

not shure how tall the rear block is but the truck sits level I will take pics when I get her back

 

Alright thanks. Did you take the stock rear block off and put the fabtech block on? You don't have to stack them do you?

 

you dont stack the blocks the fabtech one replaces the stock block no stacking

 

Perfect. That's what I wanted to hear

 

fabtech makes a good lift for these trucks, many members run them with no problems and the cross member looks so much cleaner than pro comps

 

One More question: Does the Fabtech lift kit come with new ball joints or do you have to take the stock ones out and switch them into the new setup?
