Fabtech 3" Coil Over Lift

[ErnestRocks19]

Anyone else have this setup? If you do, I am curious how frequently you grease your upper control arms?

Have had mine for about 21 months now and no issues or needing greasing. When I ran Total Chaos UCAs, seemed liked I was constantly greasing them as those were always making noise.

I feel like the setup is out of ratio. I have some rocking motion when stopping.

 

[Desert Dawg]

Well that doesn't sound right at all. I have had no such issues with mine. Have you checked if the rear spring spacers are seated correctly?

I have taken to 4wheel parts. They say that's the way it's supposed to ride and even called Fabtech which claimed that's how it rides as well cause the shocks are tuned for high speeds.

I agree that the shocks are tuned for higher speed response and therefore stiffer than stock at slower speeds, but should not rock the truck unless I am misinterpretting what you mean.

When you stop it just feels like it takes about 15 seconds to settle which gives you a slight rocking boat feel.

Sorry, that is not normal so not sure why/how Fabtech would say that to your shop. Mine does not rock like that at all when stopping which is why I think something is not installed correctly. Do you know the part number for your kit? Also thinking they might have installed wrong kit for your model? Just guessing here.
