I'm looking at buying a 6" Fabtech suspension lift for an 06' K1500 Chevy ext cab 4x4 light truck.  Anybody that knows where to find em' cheap lemme know.  I'm also after some inexpensive blck w/ polished 18" rims and some 35" x 12.5" x R18 tires... cheap!!  Lemme know if anybody has any experience ect.  I'm set on the Fabtech cause I will be using their traction bars and eventually add the dual shock hoops.  The truck will be a pavement pounder and won't see much if any offroad use.  I prefer to have inexpensive like "C" rated tires and brand is of NO concern. 

I'm also looking for a cheap FlowMaster or comparable muffler.  I'm cheap so I'm just after the can.  LOL  Thanks for lookin'.  :thumbs:

Fabtech does not = cheap..... Way expensive, you might get lucky and find one on Ebay.

Check out Nor-Cal Trucks.. http://www.norcaltruck.com/index.html

They have THE best IFS lifts in m opinion.. Talk to Nick there.. hes a Raptor man as well. I have dealt with him thru all the diesel truck work he does. The frontends that they build hold up to well over 1000 HP.. :)

For Tires, we just got a set of 18" Moto Metal 851's for the wifes Z71 and a set of 18" Nitto Terra Grapplers to go around them. Got the whole package shipped to the house for like $1400 from Discount Tire.com

Horsepower is like a condom, I'd rather have it and not need it.. Than need it and not have it.

If you see any rims and tires you like at the next rally, point them out to me.  You'll have them in the morning.

Well I ended up ordering the Fabtech from topguncustomz.  They matched the best price I could find after weeks of searching.  BelleTire was able to beat the best pries I could find too. I got some 215/70 R17 Yokohama AT/s 's. I liked the Ultra Mammoth in black and they are like $125 a pop so that is super cheap.  Belle did the mounting and balncing for free and threw in the lug nut kit for nuttin.  Discount wanted to charge a bunch of little charges that shot the deal for them.  Plus Discount says they are the nations biggest Yoko dealer... yet it would take a month to get the rubber.  Belle said they don't stock the Yoko's... and they had them in my hands mounted and balanced in 2 days~!  Too bad the damn lift kit backordered till the end of the month.  :'(  I'll post pics when she's done.  :thumbs:

i had a bad experience with topguncustomz, i ordered nitros and they sent hydros, i was sad, they would have exchanged but i would of had to of paid shipping and brokerage which was a much as the shocks.  i wasnt and am not happy, all i can say is the cheaper shocks better be good. :mad:
