    That is my exact setup. I love it. I have had no problems with it at all. I trimmed a little of the inner fender well (plastic) against the can and that is it. It is much more expensive then a Rough Country setup.

    Yeah it will be expensive but that's fine as long as it performs, I had cheap lifts with crappy shocks before and won't go there again, I been doing lots of reading here to make a good choice on what I want ,it will be 6" for sure and like the front cross member of the fabtech

    Here's some pics of mine to give you an idea.

    The only bad thing I have ever heard about the Fabtech lift is the limited turning radius.

    Yours may be different considering you're a 1st gen, I'm not sure. On 05 - 15 the spindles have steering stops which limit your turn radius so you don't scrub the frame.

    Edit:
    I have the RCD lift on mine for just over a year and it's been perfect for me.

    My PC kit came with some tabs to weld on but I never did. The only thing it seems to touch is the abs line bracket against the swaybar end link at full lock,but it isn't hurting anything yet. I just don't want to make 10 point turns,bad enough with a LB.

    Thanks man. That's what I'm running but in Fuel wheels. 17x9 with 4.5 backspacing.
    ^This. If I had a complaint, it would be this. My turning radius sucks. :(

    I have the 6" PC stage 2 for over a year and a half now with zero issues. However, the mod bug has been itching... Would install in a set of Total Chaos heim UCA greatly benefit the overall ride on/ off-road? I only off-road in light snow and on dirt roads, with the occasional sand down in Pismo Beach.
    Any input would be greatly appreciated!

    Only from what I've read they give you a little more travel over stock. So if they articulate more then I'd want to believe you'd get a little better ride. Some of the other guys should chime in once they wake up :laugh:

    I personally have Light Racing UCA, they suite me lol...

    The heimed uppers are noisy. They don't have bushings and are meant to correct issues in larger lifts. I think @Blacktacoma23 is the only one with a DB that has aligned that way (cause 37s)

    I bought them for my last truck but kept them on my new truck. I may be aligning that way soon.

    As for any more travel, I'd say no. The PC COs are not like EXT travel ones from King, Fox or ICON. If you really want to improve ride and get a bit more droop, get some real coilovers.

    Thanks for the input guys. I currently am running the lift with coils... I might have to join the mid-travel, coils/ aal, long travel club if I'm considering a mod meant for rugged offroad ventures. :thumbsup:

    How is the aftermarket UCA treating you guys running with the DB set up?
