Default Question....Anyone use FABTECH Motorsports suspension??

Just wondering. Trying to gauge interest, looks like they have some decent stuff for our trucks. Please chime in and let me know if any of you have used them or not and your experiences with them. Maybe we can have a sale on there stuff if there is interest.
Heres a link to their site:

Thanks

I have not used Fabtech, nor would I. I know a lot of people who have and have had bad luck with their kits. Control arms breaking in half, busted ball joints. Hope this helps!!

The new Fabtech is very similar to the RCD kits. The lift kits retain the stock geometry of the front suspension.......not like the old kits

i went with a superlift kit although the install is a lot harder than the fabtech kit.the fabtech kit like a lot of other lifts push the wheel out 2 inches on each side so your tires will fling everything down the sides of your truck.in my opinion the superlift or procomp lifts are the only ones to use unless you like the sides of your new truck destroyed.also to add superlift makes two kits the one that drops your suspension mounts down is the one i prefer.
