Pro Comp lift

rpoint16 · 01-30-2009, 02:47 PM

I was calling around for lifts today, specifically for coilovers.

4 Wheel Parts was steering me towards the Procomp K5075B pkg: CTS front coil springs, rear aal, ES6000 series front struts, & ES9000 series rear shocks. They implied they are similar to the coilovers, just not adjustable.

Any drawbacks?

yes...ur taking information from 4WP. they may be descent on prices, but dont trust a thing they tell u as far as technical. know what u want before u go there and u'll be ok

yes what jhodge said.they want your $$$$$.but read around the site and you will find what everybody is running.from what ive read not to many people even mention a pro comp lift.customer service means ALOT.

I was thinking about going with a 6" pro comp lift when I first started getting into lifting my truck but got nothing but negative feedback from people so I said F--- IT!!! Went with a 3" toytec lift instead. Loving every minute of it!!!

Im sorry but Pro-Comp tires are not junk, Ive had pro comp a/t's on my truck for 45k miles and they still have alot of miles left in them, they do great on and off-road, theyre a/t and m/t tires are awesome, I agree the lifts are junk but not the tires

pataco · 01-31-2009, 06:20 PM

Im glad you have had some good luck. I know of not one friend of mine that has had them last long, or work well. One of my buddies had a Brand new Pro Crap tire tread separate, and tear up the side of his truck. It was nearly a year before Pro Crap reimbersed him for the damage. A few friends have had their tires last only a few thousand miles before they were destroyed. Their tires dont grip well in any terrain, their MT's chunk horribly on rocks. My $0.02

Nope. I run OME n140s Soocks in the front with OME 885 springs, and TC UCA's. In the rear, I had a spring shop down town make me an AAL to my specs. and am running Bilstien 5100 rear shocks, wich Im going to swap out for some OME shocks when I get a job.

NP, Dennis! Good talking with you!

krumble · 06-12-2009, 08:51 PM

I'm running the setup they suggested to you but I pretty much got it for looks. I haven't done any offroading with it yet but I don't think it will be too bad. Haven't ran any other brand so I'm not one to judge...I think its better than a spacer lift for about the same price.....IMO
