Just ordered a ton of stuff lift... What do you guys think
If you have stock 17s on the truck then you dont have 392s and if you are going up to 37s then I would certainly look at 456s to offset the tires. Ive got 36s and running 456s. If you have stock 20s then you will be ok for now but I would still upgrade. Take pics now of the CVs and when you get the lift on just take pics of the CVs again. That will let you know the angle difference.
I dont think you will have any issues either. If you were closer I could help you put the kit on.

You just gotta check to be sure.
As far as comparing your truck running 36s to his running 37s, not apples to apples, you have no CV's to break. Again, with normal highway use, he'd prolly be ok, but much heavy duty stuff and he's gonna have problems.
Just ask AF_Hemi for starters, he's gone thru 2 or 3 CVs already and he's only running 35's I think...
Thats true and maybe I did specify enough. I didnt mean ALL 17 inchers has less than 392. I know there are some but statistically speaking, no where near as many.
I forgot about him being a 4wd though.

I wont say anything that hasnt already been said probably (not gonna read through all the pages right now), but I have the fabtech 6 lift and if i could do it over again i'd go with another company. Fabtech is either out of business or got bought out and i dont think its possible to get certain components that might break. Also, the fabtech does put the CVs at more of an extreme angle that most of the other lifts, so you can expect to replace your CVs way more often.
As for wheels and tires, those look absolutely awesome. The 37's aint gonna help your CVs anymore either, so again be prepared to drop $100 each time you gotta change one out (NOT hard to do by yourself...took me about 90 minutes)

so guys heres a update:
I changed the order around.. i changed the lift from fabtech to procomp and i also still go got the 20 inch dc-2 wheels but i just had them put 35s on instead... does anyone have any pictures of a truck like mine with a 6 inch lift?
