If you install a Fabtech on a 1500 it will not make the front offset wider than the back, that is on the 2500's. The only thing I would use a Skyjacker on is a Dodge.

yea, some knuckle lifts are different than others, the idea of a knuckle lift really isn't bad at all. its companys like skyjacker that make them horrible. i know alot about chevys, but nothing as far as lift kits go and what not on dodges, so idk.

my buddy has a fabtech 6" on his 01 f150 and it looks like a really nice, well thought out lift. no insane cv angle, torsion bars arent cranked just to make it sit at a true 6" in the front to make the truck level. another friend of mine has an 01 chevy with a skyjacker, and it is just horrible as iv said in my recent posts, insane cv angles, ball joints at their limit, after market torsion keys maxed out to barley fit 35s and make the truck sit level.

how much are you wanting to spend? i was hoping around 2000 to 2500. i was looking at the 7" fabtech but its almost 3500$ off the fabtech website. wayyy out of my budget.

yea, 3500 is a rip, you can get somethign like an rcd, or rough country, or something like that for about 1800$...
