What are some good Suspension lift kits for an 83/84/85 pickup? (ones that wont make me go broke)

Ive looked around and saw some pro comps, but im sure theres better ones out there.

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks!

 

All Pro, Marlin Crawler, Trail Gear, Sky Manufacturing.

 

Is there anything a little cheaper than those?

 

Pro-comp, If you want something better than Pro-comp your going to have to pay. Try Superlift, Rough Country, Skyjacker. Those are all about the same price as Pro-comp, but also the same quality. I believe 4wheelparts.com should have price listings for those.

 

You're going to get a crappy ride and probably crappy flex with a Pro-Crap or similar style lift. If you can't pay Marlin, Trail-Gear, etc. prices then look into OME. You probably won't net as much lift better you will have a better suspension.

 

you could have alcan springs make you a better set of oem springs that might be cheaper

 

Any other recommendations??

Also, how good are these shocks?

Thanks for all of the replies!

 

I have Skyjacker shocks in the rear of my runner and they're mediocre at best. My OME's were much better. Look at Bilstein, OME, and companies like that. They're pricier but well worth it. Plus, OME matches the valving of the shocks to the springs so you get the right set up.

 

ok

OME lift vs pro comp lift questions:

Does the OME have a smaller lift, but provide more flex/ articulation/ect. compared to a Pro Comp or similar lift?

What exactly is the big difference between the two lifts?


Also, I just found this lift:
