    The only time i rub is at full lock and flexed a little bit. I have 13.50's on it right now and about to switch to a 12.50 which should eliminate some of the rubbing. The ride is pretty good for a 6in lift. I have drove trucks with worse ride quality. I have trimmed a little but not alot. Probable will be trimming some more in the near future.

    It is the stage 1 lift but plain on upgrading to the stage 2 soon.

    The tires are pro-comp extreme at's and i am not sure of the back spacing on the rims.

    it's actually the opposite i think, the fabtech lift does not lower the lca as much as the procomp does so there fore the procomp is a little lower but is capable of more lift which the procomp(fox) coilovers give, dont quote me on this i might have it the other way around lol :D

    you could run stock tires but you need aftermarket wheels.

    Only if they are the 17" Wheels.. If you have the 16" offroad wheel's you might have to run the spacer but even that is not a guarantee..

    I was tracking that the FT lift could support a 16" wheel as long as you ran a 1.25 spacers?

    And this is the problem I'm running into, I have the lift sitting in my garage but my truck is sitting on 16's right now. Ive been told the fabtech lift with a 1.25 spacer will accommodate that wheel size and then others have told me it will rub even being spaced out. The last thing I wanna do is install the lift and not be able to fit the wheels back on.... Cuz then I'm kinda SOL :facepalm:

    well with the 17 i had no problem on the caliper just tire clearance on the uca. maybe with your rims and tires you might be able to clear them with no problem.....whats your backspacing?

    I was wondering what an avergy cost would be for me to replace the spacer in the front of my fabtech lift with longer struts/coilovers?
