Construction & Design

The Fabtech 4-inch Basic System features a robust design centered around drop brackets that utilize the existing factory mounting points, simplifying the installation process. The system employs high-strength steel components, including precision-machined brackets and heavy-duty coil springs, to withstand demanding off-road conditions and daily driving stresses. The included Stealth shocks are engineered for optimal damping, providing a smooth ride while controlling body movement during aggressive driving or rough terrain.

The use of drop brackets and relocation components ensures that your truck maintains proper suspension geometry, preventing issues such as bump steer or uneven tire wear. The system's design emphasizes ease of installation, with minimal modifications required, and all parts are manufactured in the United States to meet strict quality standards.

Performance & Sound

This lift kit enhances your truck's off-road capability by increasing ground clearance and allowing for larger tires, which improves approach, departure, and break-over angles. The upgraded shocks provide better control and stability, especially during spirited driving or off-road excursions. While this system is primarily designed for improved performance and aesthetics, you can expect a slight increase in ride noise due to the upgraded shocks and suspension components. Overall, it offers a confident, controlled ride that balances comfort with off-road prowess.
