wmrcs Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 It looks like it will be a tad bit more harsh than stock but not too bad. The coil spacers are what would make it rough, and also make it a budget kit. I have no idea on mpg. E34 540iT/6
79Bronco Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 Personally, I would look for something else. Lifts are one of those things you don't want to skimp on. There's a reason they are expensive parts. If you want to lift a truck the right way, adding spacers is not the way to go. Look into something with aftermarket springs, arms, torsion keys/bars etc. Nothing says ghey like truck jacked up to the sky because some redneck bought a bunch of block spacers.

stevensracing06 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Posted November 20, 2012 Try and look somewhere else besides fabtech they are great and all but they are over priced and the lifts aren't true to height lifts. You get an 8 inch fabtech and its more like 7 1/4. I like BDS and pro comp when I do installs for people trying to save a little cash but if that's not a problem then id say fuck it and go with either Rize or an Full throttle suspensions lift
stevensracing06 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Posted November 20, 2012 and with these new trucks your not really looking at a huge mpg drop maybe a gallon or so with the height you want
