6" lift for EB Expy???

[dphillips067]

Has anyone used the Fabtech 6" lift for a 2000 or 2001 eb expy? Fabtech says that you will get a drive line vibration has anyone found a cure for this I bought my expy hoping to someday lift it now I found out that I may not be able to Bummer. Any help would be great!

I would contact Fabtech directly and ask them. Usually driveline vibration after a lift id due to the angles imposed on the driveshaft. In the past (not on an expedition) I have cured this by shimming the rear pumpkin angle and on another truck dropping the center driveshaft hanger at the carrier bearing ( this was on a super duty) Both of these reduce the angle of the drive shaft

It's the front that vibrates on the AWD vehicles. The front u-joints wear in at the stock driveline angle and when you lift the vehicle it changes the angle enough that the u-joints are out of the wear pattern they created. Some on here have had no issues with vibration and AWD (Walnuts I believe) If there is vibration, new u-joints in the front will help with, but may not completely eliminate it.
