Go HERE and look at the catalog and tell us which one he ordered. How much was it got the kit? That may help also.

Ok, the Fabtech 6" Basic System comes with

1 K3008 Kit# w/Performance Shocks
1 FTS23007BK Component Box 1 (cross member drop)
1 FTS23008BK Component Box 2 (cross member drop)
2 FTS23009BK Coil Spacer
2 FTS7240 Perf. Rear Shock
2 Spindles
1 Add-a-leaf

Now, when you say "I took it to my local off road shop and a leveling kit would not work bc of the spacer already there", what spacer was already there because the only spacer you should be using is the coil spacers that comes with the Fabtech kit and thier spindles. If you have a previous set of coil spacers there to level the front originally then you would no longer use them.

But with a 4wd (you do have a 4wd right), I didnt think you guys used spacers to begine with but cranked the t-bars.

yes thats it. but on top of the coil, where it mounts at the top the is a 6in spacer i would call it, bolted atop the coil. Thats where the leveling kit goes but it wouldnt bolt because of that spacer on top the coil. I do not have coil spring spacers inside of the actual coil though. Also, the 2006 and newer dont have t-bars.

i have basically the same lift for my 2007 and the front actually sits a bit higher then the rear. maybe the shop installed a bigger block and if you got the add a leaf maybe they put a 2 inch block also.
