Bound4Dirt Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 (edited) I am thinking of going with either Pro Comp or Donahoe Racing. I am hearing more people like Donahoe Racing lift. What are you guys running? Edited February 10, 2007 by Bound4Dirt Quote
Richard Cheese Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 I am thinking of going with either Pro Comp or Donahoe Racing. I am hearing more people like Donahoe Racing lift.

indasand Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I have a pro comp 6" and the only problem on my chevy lift is the front sway bar links keep breaking. 4W parts is starting to leave the stock ones on and claim they get less people returning with breakage. I'm on my third link. I keep going to fast through the whoops on my way to comp at night and my 1 ton bounces out of control and I spill my non alcohol beverage (LOL) all over the place. But I think pro comp is fine... Quote
offroadracer Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Like ISBB said for a chevy CST for a for dI would say Donahoe, they have done a ton of research for thier lift Quote
Warrior07 Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 (edited) i would say after working a shop i would go for fabtech i lifted my supercrew after i worked there and today i would still choose fabtech .nice clean made product .that works Edited February 12, 2007 by warrior07 Quote
Bound4Dirt Posted February 12, 2007 Author Posted February 12, 2007 i would say after working for an extremely over priced shop i would go for fabtech i lifted my supercrew after i worked there and today i would still choose fabtech .nice clean made product .that works Can you go into detail? What lifts have you done? Quote
Warrior07 Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 cst are nice but rcd i think is on the menu with tuff country full throttle you have to make work and rancho is nice but fabtech i think perfects rancho .just my Quote
got boost? Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 cst is one of the best...all the parts come powdercoated superthick and the truck can generally be put back to stock if needed. Donahoe is also a nice well built lift Quote
dunefreak Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 I would stay away from Pro Comp :mc_smiley: . I was gonna lift my truck and researched them quite a bit. After looking at all of them quite a bit, I would only go with a CST kit. CST Quote

Richard Cheese Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 In that order? So, Pro Comp first? not in any particluar order. I have been eyeing the cognito kit. it's hella expensive, but very heavy duty in all the right places, and for a little extra, I can also get double shock hoops for the front, which is a killer setup for the diesels doing some wheeling, AND also on the road......makes the things ride like a caddy!!

Bound4Dirt Posted February 14, 2007 Author Posted February 14, 2007 Looks like Donahoe Racing is going to get my money. I'll let you know by Friday. Quote

got boost? Posted February 15, 2007 Posted February 15, 2007 Looks like Donahoe Racing is going to get my money. I'll let you know by Friday. who is doing the lift? Quote
Bound4Dirt Posted February 16, 2007 Author Posted February 16, 2007 who is doing the lift? Local shop $645 Quote
Bound4Dirt Posted February 25, 2007 Author Posted February 25, 2007 Got local shop to match two ther places at $460 and I did receive the DR kit the other day. I ordered the rear add-a-leaf and am waiting for that so I can install it Those guys at DR were great! I'll post back on how it rides, etc. Quote
Vegashd Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 Looks like Donahoe Racing is going to get my money. I'll let you know by Friday. If you have a leaf sprung or 05 and newer Ford SD I would go with Donahoe. They have done their research and really truley have nice lift. If your driving a Chevy or Nissan TItan CST has done and designed a nice lift that ride very well. I would not take a Fabtech or Pro Comp lift if it was GIVEN to me. In 05 I bought the best 4 link set up Fabtech made. My buddy and I BOTH bought new 05 F250s, installed their 8" lift and he took his off within 2 days it was so crappy and mine made me sell my truck I hated it so bad. They SUCK!!!! Mine would get this scary wobble from time to time. The new owner of myu truck..... rolled it on the freeway. Quote
Bound4Dirt Posted March 2, 2007 Author Posted March 2, 2007 I had it installed today. I am pleased. Nice ride. Little stiff in the rear, but I went with a 4" block and a add-a-leaf in the rear and their 4" leaf pack up front with their SS shocks. No wobble noticed yet. I only got up to 55mph and a small chatter from the start. Not sure about that yet. That's it. I would recommend it 100% after having it for a few hours. I will post back as time goes on. Quote
LVRhino Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 I have a 6" RCD on '05 Chevy. When I got mine, I was told CST is the best and next was RCD, Fabtech & Pro Comp were pretty comparable. CST was big bucks, so I went with RCD. No problems so far and its been on 2 years. Quote
