trust me, its gay. Look at my truck, I have a 6" Pro-comp lift and for some reason pro-comp didn't want my truck to sit level. . . son of a pitch forked penguin!

Eaxct reason I went with Fabtech. It costed more but full size shocks instead of spacers, no stacked blocks, and my all 4 of my fenders are the exact same distance off the ground. For a budget kit the Procomp cant be beat though.

I saw this last weekend when I was in South Carolina. Lots of lifted trucks running around on 22"-24" wheels, with the rear of the truck a full 6"-8" lower in the back. Frigging stupid as hell looking.

^ That's a truck being used, therefore, the squat.
Now the whole halfway lifted trucks with the headlights pointed to the sky is just gayer than aids.
