• Relocated factory lower control arms are mounted on high-arched 1/4-inch thick steel crossmembers, providing increased strength and durability for off-road use.
• An integrated differential skid plate offers superior protection against rocks, debris, and obstacles encountered during off-road adventures, helping to safeguard vital drivetrain components.
• The factory front sway bar is retained, with sway bar drops included to maintain proper suspension articulation and handling characteristics.
• The system includes coil-over spacers and performance shocks designed to improve ride quality, stability, and off-road capability.
• All components are constructed from high-quality materials, ensuring long-lasting performance and resistance to harsh environments.

Construction & Design

The Fabtech suspension system features heavy-duty, ductile iron steering knuckles that are precision-machined for a perfect fit and longevity. The high-arched steel crossmembers are crafted from 1/4-inch thick steel, providing robust support for the relocated control arms and ensuring the suspension can withstand demanding off-road conditions. The differential skid plate is seamlessly integrated into the design, offering maximum protection without compromising ground clearance or articulation.

Designed with a focus on maintaining factory steering geometry, the system ensures predictable handling and minimal bump steer, even with the increased ride height. The coil-over spacers and performance shocks are engineered for optimal damping, delivering a smooth ride on pavement and controlled performance off-road. Overall, the system combines strength, precision, and thoughtful engineering to deliver a reliable upgrade for your Toyota Tundra.
