There's a guy on here running the fabtech single and he said it makes a clunking sound. Almost sounds like his mounting brackets are loose.

i have a fabtech dual shock stabilizer that i installed about 2 months ago. the brackets were hitting the sway bar connectors so i had to adjust it. been driving about a week since its been adjusted and haven't heard the noise. it took me while to get to it. when i was adjusting it i took the shocks off to re-adjust the brackets. while the shocks were off i took it for a ride and i really noticed the difference with them off. here are some pics.

LOL!!! That was good. I dont see any reason why this kit wouldnt work with a smaller lift kit like my leveling kit. Mabye the angle of the bracket on the steering shaft. But I plan on getting this fabtech lift some time soon so I guess I will wait. Nice truck!!
