Put a 4" skyjacker on my F350, springs front & rear, witn no problem. Everything fit real nice, took about 6 hrs. to install.

Also installed one of their steering stabalizers (Dual), again no-problem.

A well engineered product.

Do not go with procomp I have heard from many sources and have had friends with procomp lifts and there aren't that good they squeek alot and make alot of noise. I would go with a SkyJacker or Fabtech they are both really good brands but skyjacker i think is just a little bit better.
