Default 2wd Lift kits! Which one!?!?!?

First off, i know its a 2wd, so dont ask why lift a 2wd? Second, ive narrowed my search down to about 3 maybe 4. They are:

CST 7" lift
Procomp 6" Stage I
Fabtech 6" Basic
Skyjacker 6" (just curious on opinions about skyjacker)

Which lift do y'all think is closer to its "actual" height. Ive heard some of the 6" aren't truly 6", so just tell me which one you would go with and which will actually be the highest (i know the 7" will be higher than 6"). Also, ive heard on the Fabtech i think, not to go with the rear block stated in the discription, and to go with the 5". Please post.

I love my Pro Comp stage 1. Its a basic kit with a spacer but its really cheap(price wise) and I havent had any problems with it over the 2 years that its been on. Its now an 8 inch. Cant say anything about the others because I have never had them but good luck.

No front shocks, they use a spacer in the front so you keep your OEM struts and shocks

You already know my vote. Until I found that CST kit though, it was a PC S1 kit all the way. I say get a coin, flip it 7 times. Best of 7 wins. Heads CST/ Tails PC (alphabetical order )
