if you go the pro comp route and need spare parts, or say a bigger block for the back, be prepared to wait over a month to receive them. i hate pro comp and will never support them again. they are extremely slow and lied to me on the phone about when i would get my order over and over again. it also took over 2 months to receive my rims from them.

one member tried to go up to 8" with his rcx and couldnt since they dont drop everything down a full 6"

I had a pro comp on my old 05 and it was a good kit, my buddy had a BDS and loved it and you can find it for a good price like 2100 installed

Can you go up to 8" with the pro comp? I looked at bds but couldn't find one under 2k and that's just the lift

That is crazy...I got my stage 1 kit overnight from 4wheelparts...I ended up getting the upgrade to stage 2 kit coilovers just the same, overnight...I could not be happier with the kit on my 06...I don't understand all of the complaints people are making about procomp...I think that it is comparable to any other kit out there....

I just got 4 new bilstein 5100's can I still use the front ones with the lift and just get new ones for the rear? Or do I have to get 4 more new ones?
