I've spent about 1500 dollars trying to correct the problems a procomp lift brings and I'm still not done and it was the correct lift for my jeep.... My advise is to send it back and read the lift sticky then decide what your wants vs needs are! Wish I'd never heard of procomp.

As you may (or may not) have learned from your last thread, it is more than just driveshafts that you will want to address.

Which specific components came in the lift? Are they adjustable? Can you fix the other problems associated with the extra height you got? Caster/Pinion angles, the shifted axles, the short brakelines, the steep steering component angles, the short bumpstops, the ...

You can find some information on specific components in the two threads at the top of this modified area.

The kit came with two adjustable track arms longer sway bar links and shocks and springs and brake line brackets I got it aligned and everything good except the drive shafts and it actually rides smooth

Here's a set of 15 thousand mile shocks from the procomp kit .... I learned the hard way save your money and buy good parts once instead of buying junk then buying good parts afterwards
