so the 8" fabtech springs have beaten the hell out of me long enough!! i finally got my factory springs in today, and hopefully by this weekend i will have a nice semi-smooth ride. if anyone has any pointers or suggestions for this process of "unlifting" they are greatly appreciated. although i dont think it can get much more strait forward than it is.

Pretty easy....remove lift, install stock parts

actually it's remove lift, install stock parts, give me lift

lol for a small fee it could become yours

i just got done doing it...remove lift...and be very sure you have all the proper hardware and brackets, as well as pan hard drop... certain things are easily overlooked. also make sure you have rear u bolts to match the blocks your putting in!

well since it was an all spring lift, factory mounts were used, and i think im gonna throw on a leveling kit while im at it. pan hard drop? i dunno what that is, but i hope i got it. anyone got a list of what i would need? so far ive got all four springs, sway bar end links, track bar bracket, track bar, all the shocks, pitman arm, and i think thats about it. oh and of course new rims and tires.

I think he means track bar not pan hard.

 

[BigTonka]

New u-bolts and nuts?

I am curious, why are you guys unlifting your trucks?
Thanks.

 

[slowleak]

me personally, i have a baby on the way. the other guys just want to go fast!!! sooner or later i will be going fast 2!

 

[NWSUPRD]

Thanks, I thought it may have something to do with going fast. Good luck with your new baby.

 

[slowleak]

thanks!

You might want to double check your U-joint angles. They do need about 1.5 degrees angle to make the needles move enough to equalize wear.
