I have a 97 f150 4x4 with the torsion bars cranked up and the problem is that it keeps pulling the tops of the front shocks. Does anyone know of any shock companies that produce a shock that is 2 inches longer than the stock ones, thanks

 

Procomp makes them for a 2" lift, I gotem tru a local 4wheelparts, store....There ES3000, there a little stiff, the ES1000 might be a better choice, Of course Ive got 8 ply tires which might be most of my stiffness, I Droped the air pressure 5 lbs and it helped me a little, I rode around with the stock shocks and older 265/70R/17 for a while with the 2" torsion key set and the ride felt like stock..But I installed the tires,rims,3" Body lift and shocks all at the same time,errr, I wish I woulda put the shocks on first with old tires that way I could give a better review of the shock..they are lifetime warranty guaranteed not to leak..and most of the bigger lifted trucks around these parts run the procomps...

 

do you happen to know the part #? All i can see on the Pro comp website is part #s for 0'' of lift and the part #s for 4" lifts. Thanks again

 

another question how much lift did you gain with the keys, just cranking up the torsion bars i gained 1.5-1.75 inches. if a person could gain another 3/4s of an inch to inch i might also consider buying a set.

 

Procomp and other "white body" shocks in general ride stiff and their quality is iffy at best. Look into other companies such as Bilstein (an FTE sponsor) or King...these compaines make far superior shocks to say that of Procomp or even Rancho and arent that much more expensive.
I speak from first hand experience and those of my buddies who have run Procomp...you'd be better of with another brand.

Heres what ive got front pt#31951, rear pt#32951, they are stiffer and fit great, I have a bilsten shop right up the street..like chris stated and ive heard right after I bought my procomp that Bilsten is the cats meow for ride quality, I;m not sure what they offer, I;ll swing in there and checkem out, there race trailer loooks sweeet...and rhere big into the offroad scene...I would like a softer ride myself, and I;m thinking most of its the procomps from what ive read..I just jumped on the first 2" shock I found for my application...
