I just bought a 2008 H2 SUT and I wanted to put a Fabtech 6" kit on it, except they won't have any made until next year. Full Throttle has a kit for the 2008 now. Has anyone had there suspension kit before? Or they any good?

if you want it done right, wait for Fabtech. why you want a 6" lift, well, that's something only you can know.

you can fit 37" tires without a lift. i've just seen lifted H2s have more issues in snow and boulders that make me realize NOT adding a lift was definitely a wise move. i just don't see the need for it, the truck can do almost anything without a lift. but, it's your money - although I would still wait until fabtech has something ready - they're reliable and very responsive when there are problems.

I agree with Shortbus. No need for the lift kit unless you are just after the look. It probably hurts your off road performance more than it helps.
