Construction & Design

The Fabtech lift system features heavy-duty brackets crafted from 1/4'' thick steel, providing exceptional strength and longevity. The brackets are precisely laser-cut and CNC-bent for a perfect fit, ensuring reliable performance and ease of installation. The use of OEM-style I-beams and radius arms preserves factory suspension geometry, which is critical for maintaining proper handling and tire wear.

The coil springs are engineered for durability and consistent performance, supporting increased ride height without sacrificing ride quality. The included drop pitman arm is designed to correct steering angles altered by the lift, ensuring your truck handles predictably and safely. The shocks are specifically valved for off-road use, providing excellent damping characteristics to absorb bumps and rough terrain.

Performance & Sound

This lift system 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 contribute to a smoother ride over uneven terrain and better control during spirited driving. While the system does not specify exact horsepower or torque gains, the improved suspension geometry and increased ride height support better overall vehicle performance and stability.
