No more crap from Sears!
What is your truck an F150 F250 F350 F550? What year truck? What lift kit did you use? How is the ride now? What size tires do you have now? Did you change your gears? Were there any problems with keeping the front end aligned? Do you front tires cup? Did you upgrade your sway bar? Pro Comp put me back looking at lift kits and before I purchase my lift kit there are some questions that I have to ask someone that has lifted there truck.

He's just like the rest of us, he expects to get what he pays for and to get the correct parts the first time. I am the same way.
Just let it go. He got his problem resolved and that was the purpose of this thread.

I don't mind sometimes a person needs a little crap and I guess I deserve it! I just wanted what I was told was to do the job. The product was good just not for my application.The Company made it good not the suppler.I want everyone to know that Pro Comp stands behind there product! And there tech is very good.The fuel thing is when I purchased my F350 I new the MPG was not good and I am going to make it worse by putting on bigger tires and lifting it but that was why I purchased a stock truck so I could do it and make it my lifted monster truck that I have always wanted. If I wasn't going to lift it there was no reason to keep it. So I was going to buy a 1986 CJ-7 restored and made into a bass $## Jeep! I worked all of this out when I purchased my Ford. Is there anything wrong with that? Isn't that a good plan?

Thank you for the reply and a lesson well learned.I am not a person that will not admit when I am wrong. I have made some mistakes in my life ask my wife. I wish I knew how to post some photos of my truck and my shop. I purchased a digital camera and I don't know how to download photos. Well take care everyone and have a good time.

I really hate Customer Service at 4 wheel parts in Compton Ca. They gave my buddys dad wrong shocks for his duramax. This happened more than once, the shocks would give out in less than 1000 miles.......CS reps do suck at 4wheelparts.

This is kind of a funny thread and you guy's are a rough crowd. But anyway. . .
Just for the record:
Pro Comp = Transamerican Auto Parts Co., Llc.
4 Wheel Parts = Transamerican Auto Parts Co., Llc.
Now you know why 4WP pushes Pro Comp products so much.
And your not the first to have complaints about either.
