Skyjacker or Procomp?
I am considering either a Skyjacker 6" or a Procomp 6 1/2" lift on my 04 SD Crew 6.0. I am going front and rear springs and Bilstein 5100's with which ever one I decide on. The problem is that the Procomp is $500 cheaper. Is the Skyjacker $500 better?

Thanks for the replys. At this point I believe I will keep saving loose change for the Edge kit. It may be 2009 before I can afford it, but from what I've heard it will be worth it.
I was originally thinking of other lifts as I can afford them now and to go with the Bilsteins. I didn't realize there was as a dramatic difference in springs as there is.
Again, Thanks for the input.

I chose the Donahoe 4" spring lift for my 04 CC 6.0. It is worth the xtra money to me buy american. RCD is a little cheaper and their springs are made in USA also. If you don't care where the springs/lift are made, Superlift has virtually identical springs for even less $...(springs made in India or Canada) and they offer bilsteins. Also, with a 6" lift I would reccomend an adjustable trac-bar (pan hard bar). Good luck on whatever you choose.

I have the pro comp and it is really stiff. I upgraded my shocks to the 9000's instead of the 3000's and they are a little better than stock but not much. The lift is very tight and there are better lifts out there..
