those are 37s. yes it has fiberglass but still. i bet 35s would fit no problem and 37s with rubbing.
the kit is in 4x2 and 4x4. and range from 2-6"s. its a raceing team so you know the kits are tough. still not going with them but i figured i would just like to share what i found.

yeah i think thats what it is. but from what ive read you can get a full 6 inch lift from them. but they do that cause the lifts are made for racing. so more travel up front then rear. idk why they would do that. haha you want more in the rear then front. but still i though i would like to share this.

IMO you get what you pay for and I will always run fabtechs... but the zone lift is looking pretty good...

i like fabtech. but ive herd the shocks for the 04 f150s and that style body. the front shocks SUCK!!! they always blow and need to be revalued every couple months. but other then that ive herd good from them. so many companys so little choices for us. gotta make it custom like yours. who would have thought to get an extra 2 inches from a 6" lift just by doing a spacer and torsion crank. and yes your body lift too. haha

they do the lift up front and let the rear sag some so when they hit the jumps and what not, the truck kind of levels itself out instead of nosedives. thats why they do that for the desert races.

you would think but its not the angle of the truck. its how much travel it has and how well the shocks take the beating. even trophy trucks dont have the cali lift. they are lowered in the front a little bit. the rear has about 30" of travel while the front has about 24-26" but i think they made this kit like this for the cali lean. i haven't seen any other kits from them though. but who knows. maybe are good.
