    Any reviews and or pictures of this lift kit? Looking to purchase 3in or under kit for my recently purchased 3rd gen. Any suggestions to good kits for not too high of a price?

    I havent heard of headstrong. I looked at their prices and they are very reasonable compared to a lot of places. Was originally looking for a fox kit but everywhere I’d look itd be outrageous pricing. Thanks for the suggestion I’ll look into OME.

    Go with king, icon or fox if your planning on spending that amount of $$. Much more reputable.

    I think you'd be better off searching for reviews on dirt logic coil overs.. Fabtech as a company I think is more geared toward bracket lifts.. and most of there 2-3 in kits are spacer kits. If you find that people have good things to say about dirtlogic then I don't see why this kit wouldn't be good. There isn't much to this kit. on the other hand there are tons of people running OME, Kings, Icon, or Fox pretty much all can be bought for roughly the same price point.

    OP not sure if you already purchased but here is my review. Not super impressed. Definitely good for off-road but if your truck is your daily driver like mine is I would steer clear of these. It is dog shit on road. Since these are already high price you might as well go with Kings or Fox.

    Fabtech has been around a long time. They are plenty reputable as a low end low performance lift. At one point I saw a long travel kit come out of their shop but they dropped off the radar for the most part.
