Pro Comp Spacer

I got the Pro Comp Lift expecting to put SAW replacement Coilovers in to get rid of the spacer but I went to track my order just now and they got pushed back to 2-15 befor shipment and when I ordered they said 1-22 they would ship. I called SAW and talked to a guy there and they arnt even in production yet they are still designing them and testing them so he said probably 2 or 3 months. My question is how bad is the spacer? I still have my Bilsteins I will run but I saw that pic of the one guys all bent up and crap and how hard would you have to hit to do that? Do I risk doing that just offroading semi hard or do you think he flat launched his truck to do that?

I remember those pics. I think he off roaded his truck pretty hard. Those are the only pics I've ever seen like that and Pro Comp has sold a ton of those kits. I don't think you will have a problem.

I remember what pics your talking about. They had me worried before i bought my kit. That guy was running 55 MPH in river bottom when he hit a ditch, that is what caused that to bend. I've never had any problems with running the coil spacer lift. I dont believe i will be upgrading to the coilovers ever.

My driver droped my lift by just now and the spacers seem to be of good quality. As I remember from the pics that guy also bent his whole coilbucket up right so he had to be way over using his kit. I think the spacers will work fine for a while. Is all that bent one of the subframes so all he had to do was replace that piece or did it mess a whole bunch up?

He never replaced it.. It is only tweeked a little bit (half inch or so). It still works just fine, just tweeked a little.
