well, tore the titan apart friday night and pulled an all nighter last night to get it all back together. install went pretty smoothly. the procomp kit was a very easy kit to install but the hardware packaging was terrible. i went with the pro comp stage 1 up front, new bilstien shocks set to 2nd notch and 4'' tapered blocks in rear. 325/60r20 nitto terra grapplers on 20" X 10'' american racing thug teflon coated wheels. now i just have to get front alighnment and ride it for few days and check all my bolts. i was very happy w the results it is bigger than i expected. i have not seen a lifted titan in person so i wasnt sure wat to expecet. here are cpl pix, let me know what u guys think

Time for new shipment of goodies to be ordered. Getting my cst end links prg traction bars and deaver leaf packs and maybe fender flares. I'm not sure which leafs to get. My front is 2.5 inches higher right now, so I'm thinking of getting the set that gives 3.5" lift because I'm getting uca from prg next month and prob be sting my shocks on next level and truck should be level,.any opinions on this?

it'll ride really rough if you put the bilsteins on the top notch.

Or you could use the PRG shackles to drop the rear end a little.

thanks,so did u end up w/ another titan? yea i know gas gonna suck, but it already sucked because i cant keep my foot out of it, its not my daily driver anymore either so im not too worried, although im taking road trip to panama in april and its gonna suck lol

Nice truck man.... Ill be real careful about taking your t across Mexico, Im from over there and have family over there and they said not to take any 4x4 lifted trucks, right now the Cartel are taking them away...
:teeth: Plus check w/ your insurance too, to see if they would cover you incase its gets stolen...

Well I ordered the traction bars, sway bar end links, drive shaft spacer and c30 deaver leaf springs from prg can't wait to get everything in.

Monday I should be going to exhaust shop and getin them to dump my bullet w/ reso tip, see how I like it for cpl weeks and prob go w/ duel bullets next.

UCAs and fender flares are next on the list. Hopefully by end of march I can have them.

got my new springs installed last night on the rear, love the way it sits now, the rear is lil stiff at low speeds but going down the road it really feels pretty good, i have my brackets for traction bars on but dont have the brackets welded on frame yet. instally my driveshaft spacer it pushed my driveshaft back in almost a full 1", the CST end links made a huge differnce on the looks and i realized my procomp were hitting the shocks pretty bad. it was measuring 46.5'' to front fender and 44.25 rear before now its 46.5'' front and 47'' rear.

Truck looks sick dude! I liked it with a little lean to it, but I'm not the one driving it! I love that color and those wheels.

That truck is b1tchin!

All that lift from just a PC 6" and bilsteins on 2nd notch? Looks like a body lift is on that thing.

If it really is just those two I am super stoked for throwing on my lift kit/wheels in the next couple of weeks...

thanks bro, yep just the pc lift and 2nd notch on bilstiens on the front, if you are gonna off road you might not want to do 2nd notch unless you have UCA's because mine are really close to hitting coil buckets and do hit on hard bumps. my rear is 4'' tapered blocks from PRG and deaver c-30 springs, nobody believes that all the lift i have. my buddy as chevy w/ 11'' total lift and i only sit 1''-2'' lower than him haha, once i start back on the truck im thinking bout doing body lift. but i have a lot to invest in my new bike before i get back to titan

Wow, that blows my mind. I have the bilsteins (2nd notch) and 4x4 coils already installed...definitely excited to see how it will turn out now.

Not to thread jack but citadel how much uca/ ca clearance do you have? How is the ride with the 5100s on the second notch?

Just to clarify, do you mean 2nd notch as in highest setting? I'm at the 1 setting...the 2nd from highest. I have always been told the highest notch is way too stiff. Thoughts on the ride?

The 2nd notch doesn't ride bad. There are 3 settings on them though, the uca's are very close to coil buckets.
