Suspension Lift Installed

Well, finally got the Pro Comp 6" Suspension Lift installed last night. After the complete installation was done the rear was 1.5 inches shorter than the front (LOL). I called ProComp and they said I must have the longer Springs up front therefore I need the 1.5" Add-A-Leaf or the 1" SHIM kit. Well I ordered the 1.5" Add-A-Leaf and it will be installed tomorrow.

Has anyone else had this issue with the rear being that much lower?

And, this lift only lifts the truck 4" total which levels the front with the 6" spacer.

BTW: Have not been on 2 days due to computer mother board crashing. Well 350.00 to replace the board so I spent 600.00 for all new MUCH faster PC LOL!

did you keep your leveing kit in? if you did, does it seem secure with the pro-comp lift? any other info would be appreciated. i am anxious to see pics.. I think that lift will be in the near future for me.

p.s. how much was the add-a-leafs and what is the "SHIM" kit?

The Daystar 2.5 Leveling Kit had to be removed!

The Add-A-Leaf only cost $100.00 plus labor going to run me $50.00!

The SHIM kit is a 1" Aluminum block I believe!
