Fabtech Ivan Dan LT suspension kit
Does anyone have pictures of what this entire kit includes? Or where I can find it online?
Does anyone have experience with this kit?

It's not made anymore
I had one "back in the day" and it was AWESOME. Here's a pic of the truck:
It was SUPER beefy - I swear you needed help to carry the lower control arms! It's been a long time, but as I recall, the kit was VERY complete - control arms, all the steering components (extra super beefy), and everything

Do you remember what shocks they gave you with the kit? Mine was supposed to come with 3-way adjustable shocks but I recieved some cheap Gabriel shocks instead which sucked big time. The suspension is tough as nails but I would not recommend this kit for anyone who lives in the northeast. I think and probably still the only one to have had a lifted 2wd Toyota truck. I even had 4.56 gears with a Precision gear limited slip.

Mine had Rancho RS5000's - single shock setup (which they had to do custom, as everyone else wanted duals or even triples)
Mine rode FANTASTIC. It was AMAZING the bumps it would soak up, seriously, I would be looking for curbs, parking bumpers, etc to run across at speed.
You guys are making me miss my old truck!

Yeah. I drove my truck all over the place. If you are planning for moderate off-road and more on-road driving you can keep the stock torsion bars but if you plan to off road alot then the Sway-A-Way bars are recommended. Actually the truck handled BETTER with the lift than it did stock. With the wider track front, stiffer suspension and the fact that I had BFG mud terrains on it made it handle like a car more than it did a truck.

Im interested as hell. I want long travel and a wider stance. What are you missing from the kit? Would I need new shocks? Im running edelbrocks.

IMHO if you really want to beat the truck off road in 2WD... start with a 4WD, remoe the front axle (spindle is way beefy) and then look at the Total Chaos "race" setup...
