    It just comes on and chirps when I turn. It's not every turn but if I take it too fast for the sensor, it goes off. And it might be vibrations? CB drop?

    Hey guys. I have seen some great looking trucks on this thread. I am looking to get a 6'' lift but am on the fence between procomp and fabtech. Which one makes the truck most level when lifted? Any info is appreciated.

    You really can't go wrong with either one. Honestly the best advice i could give you is get the cheapest stage one of the 2 and buy some fox or icon coilovers for up front and get some custom Leafs for the rear.

    I think both kits use the add-a-leaf & block combo for the rear so height should be about the same. Some other kits on the market now do not use an AAL....just a block. Those might settle more over time & give you the saggy ass end look.

    There is a local place in my town that installs BDS suspension kits. I see that BDS uses Fox front coilovers and rear fox shocks. Would this be a good route to go?

    Im not too familiar with the BDS other than pictures. The DB appears to be not as plow like the PC :)
    I know King & Icon make direct replacements for 6" DB lifts. I went Icon and I know Mark (eatabullet) went King for his set up.
    Honestly man, if you really want the 6", just get the basic lift and buy a full leaf pack, Coils, UCAs and rear shocks from somewhere else.
    PM me if you have any more questions.

    Now that I took a look at what you have already man, you should keep the toytech and just swap to extended coils, get a full leaf pack and UCA to go full mid travel! why spend all that $$ on a 6" and start over when you have a good start already with what you have?

    ^^i don't know Wes....wish I did. There was a guy in this thread maybe a year or 2 ago that was having a similar issue. Maybe you could back track thru these pages, figure out who it was & contact them thru PM?

    I had a few issues with that when I first installed my lift but stopped after an alignment was done.

    Also check your sensors on the spindles to maker sure they are installed properly and also that the wires are not in a bind when turning or flexing the suspension.

    Thanks! Will do. It doesn't feel like its perfectly aligned...I took it to get an alignment and it still does it. Local 4x4 shop says it could need new UCA's. They are at a pretty steep angle. Could that be the problem? I really don't want to drop anothe $400 on control arms.
