Fabtech 3” Coilover

[ErnestRocks19]

Anyone done this kit yet? Looks pretty awesome but for $2800 the ride better be smooth as butter.

Has anyone installed this kit?

I'm curious about it. I have limited space above my ORP truck to fit it in my garage and I think these might work. But I think the Fabtech description might be a little misleading. It lists 3 inch lifts for both the Rebel and the standard 1500, but if you're using the coilover lift kits, they replace the front springs/shocks with the coilovers, which are 3 inches of lift from the basic factory truck. They then lift the rear with 1.5" spacers, so you'll get a different rake on a Rebel or ORP truck than you would on a standard truck. Ironically, the kits have the same part number whether you're putting it on a Rebel or a standard 1500 even though they list them separately. So for a Rebel/ORP truck, you're going to get 2" of lift in the front and 1.5" of lift in the back.

Interestingly enough, the two trucks pictured (attached) with the lift on their web site are the Rebel and an ORP truck.

Anyone have color on how the 3" Fabtech kits ride?

I’m very interested in this kit as well but unfortunately being so new not much info out there about it. To me don’t look much higher than a level kit if you have a Rebel, obviously the ride quality should be a lot better than a level but not sure it’s worth the price for the amount of lift you actually getting.

Still tracking this havent seen anyone with it yet.

I think Dessert Dawg has them on order for his Rebel Build. He confirmed with Fabtech I believe the the exact specifications. Check the member build section of the forum, he has a detailed review of the lift and thought process behind it. Unfortunately due to Covid-19, he has not received so on truck reviews will be later on.

I'm torn between the Fabtech kit & Icon Stage 2. The Icon Stage 2 is around $1900 so substantially cheaper, but I do believe you get UCA's with the fabtech kit, which I reckon justifies the extra cost. I'm honestly waiting for Desert Dawgs on truck review to make sure they ride well, as I've heard the Icon set up can be a little stiff.

Went ahead and jumped on this train and ordered mine today. Ordered the kit with the reservoirs. Hope it gives me the lift I need to stop the tire rubbing. If not then I'll start some trim work.

 

[TrailBoss]

Just got word today I’ll be waiting anywhere from 6-8 weeks! Ugh!
