Problems after lift kit install


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hopefully somebody can help.....  I had a 2.5" Fabtech lift kit installed by Anthony's Planet Pickup (S.A., TX).  Ever since the install I've had to put up with the ABS & BRAKE light coming on intermittently.  The truck will "shudder" when the lights come on & occasionally it will stall.  The brakes still function normally, even when the lights are on.  Anybody got an idea on how to fix it?  It's a real pain in the ass, especially when it stalls going down the highway.  I have to turn the key off to restart it... can get exciting in highway traffic!!

Oh yeah, can't say that I'd recommend either Anthony's Planet Pickup OR Fabtech after all the problems with the lift kit itself!

It almost sounds like there is a pinched wire that goes to the BAS control box its self.

You may want to take it back to them or to another mechanic to diagnose the problem and then make them fix it.They should honor their work.

Sorry to hear about the problems but let us know how it turns out and welcome aboard.

Thanks Frank, I'll check for crimped wires.  Don't know if I'll get much cooperation from the shop.  When they first installed the lift kit the rear was 2" lower than the front.  They didn't have a problem with that, needless to say, I did!
