Fabtech 1.5” leveling kit - anyone install it?

[Jay1Clarke]

Anyone install the Fabtech 1.5” leveling kit? Also it doesn’t say on their website if it works with SAS package.

I installed this kit on mine and ended up with a rise in the front. I have a wildtrak with the Hoss 3.0. After I installed it I measured the Hoss 3.0 to a 2.0 (bilstine set up) and the fox sits lower.
I had to remove the fab tech and run a rough country - which is actually 3 Pieces, so i ran it with one upper and lower and have less than 1/4” take on the front.

the fab tech was a great product but did not level with the hoss 3

Well I got it installed the other day. It is a noticeable difference. I’m hoping it settles a bit in the front because it measured a bit higher in the front. New 35/12.50r17 Nitto Recon Grapplers are getting put on as I speak.

After a year, are you still happy you did it? May I ask how much labor was?

Did you use everything that came in the rough country set? I have a HOSS equipped WildTrak as well and I would like to level the front.

Can you please share exactly which parts were used?

Absolutely they will fit and look better too!

How has that worked out for you? I plan on doing similar to mine. post a picture with it not flexed out? Looks badass!

- Cheers!

Nice setup. I run Fabtech's but I did not have a SAS, and I went with the full system. On a non-SAS setup, it put me at 4' coil over with 2.5 res. I also have the link bars in the back, basically everything sans the tire rods, which came out after I had done my kit.

I love the Fab system, rides smoothly and is very capable on the trails. I am also on Cooper 37
