Just Installed PRG 4" Performance Lift

[Mysterman68]

Just installed the 4" PRG Performance lift yesterday (2/17/07). AMAZING!! I have a 2006 Titan LE, CC, Red Alert, 2X4 truck. The truck handles and rides 10 times better. The first thing I noticed was the steering. Very light and more responsive to the touch.
I'm an old fooogee (56) so it took me a little longer than you young guys. And I was also useing the base auto hobby at Little Rock AFB. Some of their equipment is not the best. Man, if I cussed that trouble lamp once, I cussed it a millions times. Kept falling apart.
Make sure when installing the front Radflo 2.0's that you loosen the front sway bar or the top nuts on the other shock on the other side to allow the A frame arm to drop more. Or you can do both. Makes getting that bottom bolt in easier.
When installing the Donohoe Racing shocks and 1" spacer block on the rear it was alot easier for me to jack up the truck and put jack stands under the axle. Then remove both rear tires. So much more room to work. I also removed my rear mudflaps at that time. I had to wiggle the spring a little to get the leafspring pin to drop into the 1" spacer. But very easy. Used a hydralic jack to lift the truck on the frame just in front of the rear axle to seperate the leaf spring and install the spacer.
Greg was a great help. Great customer service.
Tools used were, 14mm, 17mm, 18mm, 19mm, 22mm wrenches and sockets and phillips screwdriver.
Hope this helps. Just holler if I can help.

Just how many guys here put on a kit of some kind this weekend?
I also installed a Performance Kit on Saturday...SAW's and DR rear shocks and Deaver rear mini-pak.
Had the 2-1/2" front level kit already, now replaced.

It's like a new truck, a new Sport Truck! The suspension is taut yet compliant. The whole truck feels tighter, but not rough. Handles much flatter and hitting a dip while turning is new experience...the truck stays put, not porpising or skittering. Made a run to about 105 mph and it now feels solid, before the kit it felt "light", under damped, and not secure. No more excessive rebound from the rear springs blowing thru the main leaves, and hitting the overload leave sending the spring rate thru the roof

No dirt roads yet, but I am hitting every dip and alley crossing I can find, the damping is so balanced front and rear....Great job by PRG!
