I can't tell you about an H2 with rear air but I recently put a Fabtech 6" lift with 38's on mine and I dare anyone to tell me the difference in ride between it now and with stock suspension.

Excellent kit, excellent fit and though expensive, one of the best prices for any H2 lift kit.

HTH's,

Mark

yes i would have went with the fab tec 6" lift but i have 37" tires IMO the tires are to small for a 6 inch lift. i was lookin into the rancho but i was told that 4" lift is more like a 5.5" so im just gonna wait untill some one makes a real 4" or untill i come across one.

We copied Phil's setup and love it. No problems now that the truck has settled.

I have the Fabtech 6" and very happy with it, ride quality is very good, but handling does suffer a little, but the trade off is worth it in my view.

37's do look a little small with a Fabtech lift. and something meatier looks better. I've seen 37's with the Rancho lift and they don't look too bad.

Here's some more info on my Fabtech lift;

Stay away from Skyjacker please. We do lifts all the time and that kit is not a good one.
