I put the springtech lift on my son's truck and he is running 35s on stock rims. Also I did not use a spring compressor to get the old springs out and the new ones in. I just pried the lower control are down and pulled the spring out. Then pried it down again when putting in the new lift spring. No problems at all.

 

u have anymore pics of truck?

 

I have 35s with the springtech and only minor rubbing on the passenger side frame rail at full lock, but my frames also a little bent so it had to rub there some to be aligned correctly.

 

they both seem like good kits so i guess it depends on if i want to do it my self

 

Also if you want to go bigger or not. If your happy with 35s the springtech will do great, if you eventually wanna tuck 37s with only suspension you'd be better off with the fabtech.

 

i think i going to go with fabtech cuz i dont wana mess with body lift im deff going to go bigger

 

What Motor and gears do you have. If you have 355s you will not want to go to 37s without regearing. My kid's truck lost a lot of power going to 35s. I could not imagine going to 37 with 355s. Also think about the wear on the transmission.

 

have 4.6l and i am prob going to regear it when i get lift

 

Regear should be around $500. Go with 4.88 if you plan on going bigger

 

when ever u regear wont it increase MPG?

 

It should help mpgs a bit and then it will help your tranny so you will be saving money in the long run

 

Depends on what gears you go with to your tire size. It could help or hurt depending if you do mostly city or highway.

 

oh its both highway and city

 

If you go with 4.88s your highway mileage is gonna suck until you get something bigger than 35's. Cause right now with the stock 3.55's im pulling about 12 to 14 highway and averaging about 13 overall. Your gonna be worse than that with 35's and 4.88s until you go bigger most likely.

 

im prob going to go with stock znd 35 if it to small i go bigger when tires wear out
