Yeah my kit said it was 3 weeks out 2 weeks ago. They were making the coilovers still. Apparently these kits are in high demand.
Yeah I talked to a guy at Fabtech just to ensure the place I ordered kit from was for real. He said for that kit and ordering recently, 6-8 weeks is about right. Just like you said they are a popular kit in high demand.

Most likely a good sign then. I mean an affordable 3” lift kit with coilovers and now having to go 6” is great.

Should be here next week or so and schedule install once arrives. I am excited to get the readylift off.
I was actually just looking at putting on the readylift 3.5 sst kit. Should I not? Why are you so ready to replace it?

Mostly the ride quality is terrible. I live in Spokane and often go into the mountains to hike which calls for dirt roads, gravel roads, or some bumpy roads. None of which are forgiving with this kit. In fact the speed bumps at Yokes almost pops my son out of his car seat. Other than that it looks good but thats about it. I wouldn’t suggest this kit leave pavement and on their site says not for off-road use. It really means that in fact they should say must be concrete or asphalt road or ride quality decreases. Just my two cents.

Really considering getting the fabtech lift. Unsure if want to just do the stealth shock or the full coilovers. For those that have them, How’s the ride quality and overall satisfaction for either.

Pleased so far with the kit. As the new coil overs settled the ride has gotten better. Have not tried anything off road yet to see how it handles. Did the full coil over kit with reservoirs.

Does anyone know how the CV axles handle this set up? Does the factory geometry differ much between the 4th and 5th gens?
