The Super Lift was 1275.00 plus shipping for a total of 1310.00
I have been scowering the WWW for awhile now and I have not found a Fabtech for $1300. I saw a kit that I thought was a fabtech on NTW that was pretty close but I am not for sure have not called them yet.
I also saw a used fabtech kit on ebay for sell for 800

besides some fabtech kits I saw did not include shocks. I guess I will have to cal NTW and just see what exactly that kit costs and what does it include.

This is for a 4.6L, 1998 F-150 super cab ( step box cant remeber if that is syle side or what) with 33x12.5x16 txruss M/T on stock suspension and some 16x8 american racing wheels.

So far I have not had no clearance problems and I would like to keep it that way. But I am sure you know what happens when you get a lift... You go out and get new wheels...... Some how I think 6inches will get me 40's but really... Do I need it...No..... AND i DEFINATELY DO NOT THINK I COULD AFFORD ALL THE GAS NOW DAYS EITHER.

Teh largest tire you will fit with the 6" Fabtech is maybe a 37"

I am runing 35's and have plenty of clearance but i might be able to squeaze a set of 37's on.

By the way if you plan on runing 35's with the 4.6 you better also plan on getting a gear swap out to at least 4.10's otherwise your truck is going to be a serious dog and you will eventually toast your tranny. A gear swap is a MUST DO item.
