Now that I know what to look for, browsing through some old photos, I see I do have these shims.

Thanks for the info.

I sure am. I had a Stage 1 and upgraded to Stage 2. Handling is greatly improved.

Turning radius still sucks !!

Good to know, especially since you've had both. Thanks!

The ride is better than stock with 35's and wouldn't change it at all. This is my second truck with ProComp and love the quality. Just questioning the height.

I measured from the bottom of the frame to the ground and have it at 18 and 3/4. From top of the tire to the fender it measures at 11 and 1/4.

Has anyone got some measurements to compare?

I don't have 35" tires so I can't help you.

I don't have this kit and cant add to that, but wouldn't it be easier and more accurate for people to measure from center of hub to bottom of fender in these instances? This would take the tire size out of the equation.

Not sure if I am misunderstanding you or not, but measuring from ground to bottom of frame would still be skewed with tire variances (i.e. if one had a 33" tire and another had a 35" tire both the frame and the bottom of the fender would result in a 1" difference between the 2), when measuring from centre of hub to bottom of fender it takes the tire size out of the equation.
