    6” Fabtech lift 35/12.5/17
    Yes I have a 6” fab tech lift & ordered the 6” front coilovers. The first set after instal the trucks front end dropped significantly. Had to torque the ring down to compress the spring as much as it could to bring the front end back up. Called rough country they said it was rite (obviously not) so they sent out another set. Put the new set in & the same thing happened again!

    I could be completely wrong but, could they possible say 6 inch assuming that will be the overall height after lift with new tires? I am only guessing because some lifts aren’t true 6 inches. Plus, my RC 6 inch lift had a 4 inch block in the rear, so leads me to believe the front wouldn’t be true 6”. :notsure:

    Do you still have the old struts or coilovers you took out? Measure them out of the truck and see if they’re the same length.

    Does the 3.5 actually come as a 3inch lift ? What height does the 3inch then come in as ? Looking for a higher front then back possibly sitting 2.8 front or 3 and 2.5 back ?

    Sorry for such a late response, but I did a 2in block but I have air helper springs in the rear as well so it’s .5 of an inch higher then the front

    Did you get everything installed yet? How is the 3.5? Mine should be arriving tomorrow finally after a month and a half. How are the CV angles?

    I see you got someone to actually take the time and adjust the SPC for more positive caster, makes the truck handle well

    I did 3.5 front, which gave me just over 3" but it will settle at 3. I did not adjust at all out of the box. I got 3" rears with icon RTX springs.

    It does for sure. This is my own redneck alignment, truck handle's good and will be better with a professional dialed alignment.

    I have not installed yet. I’m waiting for my JBA UCAs to show up and do everything at once. Then I’ll do a fresh alignment

    On a different note, has anyone done the sway bar delete option with these coilovers? I’m thinking I’m gonna do it since I offroad a fair amount and could use the extra flex

    Installed these on a '15 and a' 21 this week. One was with the icon 1.5 AAL the other utilized the block that comes with the full kit. Both of the trucks ride absolutely amazing with the switch. I have my rears, SPC UCA's, Icon 1.5 AAL already just waiting on my fronts to show up next week. I run a Leer 100xr canopy and will let you know if I end up needing more lift in the rear due to the constant load.
