I HAVE A 2005 F-150 6IN FABTECH LIFT WITH COILOVERS, THE DRIVERS SIDE MAKES A LOUD CREAKING SOUND I CAN RE-PRODUCE WHEN ROCKING THE TRUCK, I SPRAYED SOME LITHIUM GREASE ON THEM AND IT QUIETED DOWN SOME BUT IT JUST COMES BACK, ANY SUGGESTIONS? NO BODY LIFT ON THE TRUCK.

 

How are the Fabtech coilovers by the way.

 

the performance is great no problems, just this noise, more irritating than anything

 

Do you see any marks that show rubbing is occurring? Have you checked for bushings that are loose or worn?

 

High chance of something is rubbing or making contact, crawl down there or have it checked.

 

Are you sure it's coming from the Coilover?

Check the bushings.

I also have a 2005 f150 with the 6 inch Fabtech lift kit, The kit was on when I purchased the truck new. Since then Fabtech has redesigned the front kit. As the coil overs produced in 2005 until ? were prone to blowing the seals on the front shocks. The redesign is much better and uses factory Ford front shocks.
