RBP Makes Suspension Lifts

Did you know that RBP makes suspension lifts? If not, then you should visit RBP’s website. You will notice that they carry a 6″ suspension lift for Toyota, Ford, and GMC as well as 6″-8″ lifts for Chevy trucks. RBP’s suspension lifts will run you around $2,000 – $3,000 depending on the suspension lift you purchase. The big question is: should you buy an RBP suspension lift instead of buying a lift kit from an established company like Fabtech, CST, Cognito or Rize?

In doing a little digging, we’re not sure the RBP suspension is very differentiated from Fabtech. Take a look at the photos below:

Do they look similar? Yes, in fact, they look exactly the same except the Fabtech name has been replaced with RBP. There’s nothing wrong with this, as it’s similar to non-branded products in the grocery store. One product is packaged with a brand name and color (making it more expensive), while the same product has the name of the grocery store on it (usually less expensive). Both products are manufactured by the same company with the same ingredients, they are just “branded” differently. There’s no difference, you are just paying for a brand name.

That’s what appears to be happening here. RBP is likely using Fabtech parts, just branded with the RBP name. Therefore, if you can get an RBP suspension lift cheaper than Fabtech, it’s probably worth buying. If you can find Fabtech cheaper, then go that route. The RBP suspension lift should perform similar to Fabtech, so if you don’t care about the name, go with the least expensive product. And if you don’t like Fabtech, then probably avoid RBP too. Hope that helps.
