No matter where the 2" is placed I don't see why it should matter. I'd prefer to not disassemble the strut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although yours is a HC; I still lean towards the motofab 1.5" as you and many TB/AT4 owners have done so. It may now have the rough country extra camber spacer but then again its half inch less therefore less stress on the cv angles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1.5" is easier to install and should avoid having to change the blocks in the rear as well, as those with AT4/TB achieve a level appearance with the motofab 1.5......2 will probably give a nose high look and stretch the cv angles/ball joints more.

ETMC Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Question for all of you who have installed the 1.5 motofab. I just bought one since motofab now has a TB/AT4 listed on the site. For installation did you need to take all of the steps on their video as far as disconnecting everything to get the space for install. I've seen some videos online where people have done it after getting the truck high enough in the air. Planning to install tonight and get my 35 12.50 18 Ridge Grapplers installed tomorrow, then alignment Saturday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did all of the steps listed except loosing the top bolts and removing tie rod. Installation was ok....would’ve been easier talking the top bolts loose. Had it done in about an hour and 15 min without using air tools. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aha1987 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Any of you have any concerns of premature wear on the ball joints? I purchased a 1.5 inch motofab for my truck but haven't put it on yet because of this concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETMC Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Was going to install mine last night but it's arriving late. Tires just showed up though. Gonna go get them mounted. Hopefully it'll be in the mailbox this afternoon and I'll get it on tonight. So I can get my alignment in the am. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
