Fabtech Lift Kit

[99 2dr]

Hello, I am looking at purchasing a 98 2 door hoe for the GF...... The only thing i don't like is that it has a 6" Fabtech lift. She is 5'3"..... How low can i make the truck lower without taking the lift off? I wouldn't mind 3 inches..... 6 is just too much. I would just take the lift off however i don't have the factory parts. Can I just lower the back with shorter blocks and un-crank the front? I have never had any of my hoes lifted, i just always leveled them with the bars.

Thank you
Kyle

you should be able to swap the blocks and decrank the front to about a 4" lift with the CV axles laying flat. if thats not enough you can throw on some steps.

I think you can install some lower step sides or nerf bars instead if you dont wish to lower the entire truck.

Yeah, dropping the torsion bars and a smaller block should do it.

Thanks guys, Right now the truck has 20" wheels and 35's on it. I don't care for that look. I have some 16's already and i was considering changing to 33's would that still look good in your opinion? It would also lower the truck even more.

If you lower it down to about a 4" lift it would look great with 33s
