Construction & Design

The Fabtech RTS system features a robust construction designed for off-road resilience. The brackets are made from high-strength steel with a precision-machined finish, ensuring a perfect fit and long-lasting performance. The system's innovative design keeps the torsion bars in their original location, which not only preserves the factory suspension geometry but also simplifies the installation process. The use of durable materials and TIG welding techniques guarantees that the components can withstand the rigors of off-road driving while maintaining structural integrity.

The suspension components are engineered to provide a balanced ride, combining the benefits of increased ground clearance with a smooth on-road experience. The system's design minimizes stress on other suspension parts, promoting even tire wear and consistent handling over time.

Performance & Sound

The Fabtech RTS system significantly enhances your GM 2500HD's off-road performance by providing increased ground clearance and improved approach and departure angles. While specific horsepower or torque gains are not claimed, the lift and improved suspension geometry support better handling of larger tires and off-road obstacles. The system does not alter engine performance but ensures your vehicle can handle more challenging terrains with confidence.

On the road, you'll notice a more commanding stance and improved stability, especially when carrying heavy loads or towing. The system maintains a factory-like ride quality, ensuring comfort during daily driving while offering the durability needed for off-road adventures.
