[NJDuramax]

so i just got my fabtec tie rods and i go to put them on and 1. they will deffienetly hit my sway bar and 2. the ball joint doesnt fit through the spindle?? help please!

Heres my stock tie rods sleeved. Are you sure they wont fit in the hole for the spindle? Are they close? You migth need to pull them the whole way in with the nut and a imapct gun or ratchet.

Also, the tie rods are pretty big but dont look like they would hit on my truck?

hate to say this but don't by anything Fabtech most of there parts are Junk and did they give you the correct ones for your truck
pony up more cash and buy a better brand and you won't have as "much" trouble

I'm going off about when Fabtech fisrt came out and sold a cheap and crapy lift for IFS chevy trucks..... never gave them a second chance
maybe there different now but i'm never going to buy there stuff to find out

IDK about that. IMO Fabtech makes one hell of a product! No matter what it is.

Did you have trouble with something?

one thing you should check :
is the a right and left different (is it one the correct side inner and outter)
did they give you the correct ones for your year and make of your truck (look at part #)
check Fabtech website for FAQ
