    Ok, there are threads on this already but I have questions still. I plan on running the 6" fabtech lift on 33" x 13.5 r 17 or 18. Do you think this looks as good as I do? Also what's the beef on a drop bracket lift? I plan on doing the dirt logic coilovers and rears, how much better is this. I do light off-roading: mud, hunting and fishing, along with snow. Will this sag an be trash right away or will I say, damn I have a nice truck that works on and offroad, and fabtech turned out to be a nice kit? I want something that work and will last driving 80% on road and 20% off road. Anything helps, I'm sure there are others like me that wish questions could be asked more about why and how. Thanks TW!

    There is a drop bracket thread on here. On my phone or I would link it to you..lots of good info in there. Personally I would stick with BDS if your gonna go with a drop bracket lift especially if you have any thoughts if taking it off road. Also lots of ppl on here will tell you that you cannot. Fabtech has been around forever and they do make a good kit but, theres more options out there now.

    Thanks, price is a bit to consider as well, like 5000 is as high as I would go for a lift, with all the add ons. I will look at the Bds tho!
