Question What suspension you running?

Hey everyone, my truck was used for the development of the pro comp 6 inch susp. lift, and as part of the deal, they are giving me a stage 2 lift, traction bars, skidplate, wheels, tires, lights, light bar, etc. The only problem with this is that i would much rather have a 3inch setup (donahoes or something) so I am hopefully going to see if they will give me all the stuff uninstalled and just sell it and use the money to get a real lift, I off-road a lot and need something functional, not for show. The traction bars, lift, and skidplate come to retail of 3000. I'm sure I cant get that much if I resell it, even though its brand new, but I figure I can get maybe 2500 for all of it. The installation is also a cost I have to consider, they were going to install the lift fro free, but if I get something else I’ll have to pay for installation.

I was wondering what suspension setups you guys recommend, what you have, how much it cost, and if you like it or if you do something different? Thanks a lot guys!

You already answered your own question. Go with the 'Hoes!

Come January or February, I'll be adding the Donahoe coilovers and Total Chaos UCA's in front and the reservoir shocks and deaver 10-pack in back.

^What he said, that would be my ideal setup, well I would rather have the Dhoe arms too, cause they are so pret-tay, but not worth the extra $$$

Man I wish my truck would be "test" vehicle once, get the hook up on some part(s), I contacted grilcraft when they were looking for someone and AEM but never got responses.

A man after my own heart.

I run a full All-Pro suspension at about 2 1/2", BTW.
