Default lifted h2 with roll.....

i just got my h2 lifted with a 6 inch fabtech lift.. i love it... the only problem is their is alote of roll i guess you call it .. when you turn the wheel . its worst at high speeds.. like on the high way, it is alittle much.kinda scarry sometimes... i got the fabtech steering stablizer installed with the lift... so i was just wondering what i could do that would help with the roll...? would the dual shock kit help alote? or is their something else that might work better. ? also what gears would i want to change to help get some power back? thanks alote

Are the sway bars hooked up ? if not than you are going to get a sloppy ride . If you installed biger tires with tall sidewalls that will also give you lots of flex in the corners and at highway speeds .

YOu may want to look into tougher sway bars. That may help some. What shocks did you go with and what tire/ rim setup. That will help others with some suggestions. There are quite a few with that lift on this site.

thanks for the help.. i went with 37 x 13.50 x 20 nitto mudd grapplers. yes the sway bars are attached.. but maybe i need heavy duty ones.. what do you suggest.? i just went with the fabtech shocks that came with the kit. so maybe the dual shock setup would help with that. ive also seen a dual steering stablizer, but im not sure if that would help...heres a pic thanks !

nice looking rig. I concur with the prior comments. Also you must figure that if you are raising your center of gravity, you will tend to get more body roll.

NICE RIG! THe steering stabilzer is worth the money..esp. if you are going to off road the truck. It will not help with your issue, but it will make input to the steering much better.

Edelbrock trailering arms and sway bars and panhard rod would be your next trial of mods. Phil D had these on his H2. He also had the fabtech kit. You may want to send him a PM to see how he liked them.

thanks for the info... i do have the fabtech single steering stablizer.. but i thought i saw a dual one.. i didnt know if that would make a difference.. but i take your addvice on the trailing arms and sway bars maybe that would tighten everything up alittle .. its not bad now, i just was hoping to improve it alittle bit more..just sways alittle to much. i also have the hypertech programer i wasnt sure what setting to use beside the one for the bigger tires .. anyone have any suggestions . thanks alote !
