Talking Need opinions please

I have a f-150 crew 4x4 with the 5.4 triton 3 valve v8. When i got the truck i wanted a lift but money was an issue so i went with the 2.5 in the front and 1.5 add leaf in the rear with 18x10 mt rims with 33x13.5 all terrain terra grapplers. Now i want more lift and money is still an issue. I am thinking about getting the 6" pro comp lift on monday. when i wear out the grapplers i will get 35 mud grapplers. The only thing is i am getting the 6" without coil overs it is like a $1,000.00 option errrr. I am getting it done at modifications unlimited they do most all lifts here in south florida. They told me they recomend going that way because the factory shocks last longer anyway. They have had ciolovers leak within 3 months. That is just there opinion though. Is anyone here running the factory shocks on there procomp 6"lift? I wanted to get all of your opinions on if it is the right move. I don't want to do it thinking i am saving money then not be happy... Hope it looks good and drives good. Also does anyone have pics of this setup or even with the coilovers so i can see what it will look like?

I know a few members have the standard Pro Comp lift. The only problem I've ever heard of with this lift was from a member here. He bent the spacers on the lift, but her off roaded his truck pretty heavily (may have even been jumping it).

Well here it is. I can't wait for the 35 mud grapplers now. This is with the 33's but i think it still looks good.

Yes FoMoCoFan17 it sets level it is about an 8th of in inch higher in the back measuring from the tire to the fender wells i have the 1.5 add leaf in the rear. f150krsc03 I don't know how much the lift was but it was 2,400.00 installed including the add leaf. I allready had the rims and tires. It was just a truck to me before now i love it.
