    I lifted my truck 6" but the ride comfort went down hill. Im looking at king shocks and a progressive leaf pack from All Pro. I was also looking into and Air ride for when I tow but was unsure because I didn't want to tear the air boot if the axle travels further when I off road.

    This is why I don't want more than 3 inches of lift since anymore would ruin the ride comfort

    I was looking for more experience with products. I knew the ride was going to be more stiff with 6".

    I have a pro comp lift. I didn't buy the coilovers that came with the kit to save money so I left the 5100's in the front
