[pleonard]

so i just put my pro comp 6inch lift on my 2005 f250 and i am still not clearing my tires , i am getting sum rub. my question is if i put a leveling kit on top of my lift what will this affect? one of my buddys did it and hasnt had any complaints , but when i called pro comp they told me that i need a diffrent track bar . ( an adjustable one) that they sell with the 8 inch lift kits but they wont sell it seperate . if i put a leverling kit on top is the truck goin to be ok ?? PLEASE HELP and thank you !!

Yes if you raise the truck..2" will shift the axle 1/2-3/4"

Ya you will need one. me and my brother both had 6.5 pro comp lifts and we still used the stock one but it did lean a little on the drivers side about 1/4" I just added the pro comp kit that makes the 6.5 a 8.5" kit and I did manage to get the stock trac bar in but it leans like 1" now. I have a adjustable trac bar on the way. Its a icon. I like the ones with the Heim joints. What size tires ya tring to clear?

Yep, your gonna need an adjustable track bar in order to get your front axle recentered. Get yourself an adjustable Icon track bar, its the only way to go. Contact Dan or Marty over at Truck Toyz and they will hook you up...Here's a link:

Does pro comp have anything aditional for my 6 inch lift that i can buy seperate??

Thanks so much guys i really appreciate all the help so far

I looked on the pro comp site and didnt see anything. The fun country II's are what I have they are a 325/80/16 I guess thats like a 37/13.5/16 and I thought those were wide but they were ok on my 6.5 lift ,now Im looking into the toyo MT's 38/14.50/16's fun country's 15.5's must be super wide.
