hey yall, about to lift my truck with a fabtech suspension lift. its a 98 f150 4x4 4.6. was wondering if there is anything i should look out for or if theres any tips to make it a little easier. truck already has a 3 inch body lift which was done by me and runnin on 33s for now until i get new wheels and tires. another question is once the lift is on, to change the ring and pinion on the front diff do i need to drop the whole thing or can i do it as is the way it sits? thanks ahead of time for all your help and opinions

Should be okay with just a 6" lift for your pinion angle, what size tires are you planning on going too?

Edit: I read your post wrong

Yes drop the front differential out when you do the gears. And as for tips on the lift install of your t-bars are like mine, don't bother trying to get them out because mine wouldn't budge. I dropped the whole lower control with the bars attached, but had to take out the trans crossmember. That's was the only prob I ran into.
