Ok as most everyone knows I got a 4" rough country kit off ebay last week. I dont want to mess around with bending my factory lines so I can reuse the factory rubber lines. Plus with the mileage on my truck (approaching 250k) the rubber lines need replacing anyways and the lift install will be a great time to do it. I have found these three options.

Pro comp Front and rear for 0-6" lift $107

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EXP-7225/SuggestedParts/?prefilter=0

Skyjacker 4"-6" Front for $103 and 2"-6" Rear for $53 total $156

front: http://www.4wheelparts.com/Brakes-S...c=65&t_s=22&t_pt=4159&t_pl=3834&t_pn=SKYFBL88

rear: http://www.4wheelparts.com/Brakes-S...c=65&t_s=22&t_pt=4159&t_pl=3834&t_pn=SKYRBL88

Russell 0-4" $100

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/R...r|1998|Make|CHEVROLET|Model|K1500&prefilter=1

Mainly looking for opinoins from anyone who has used any of these lines or knows of some others I havent found. I'm leaning towards the procomp kit because I'd like the extra incase I want to take my lift to 6" one day and its only $7 more. I just dont see paying a premium ($50 more) for the same thing from skyjacker.

Thanks,
Paul

I would go with what Jon suggested. That's a hell of a lot better deal.

That would work for a lot of people, it's good info, but as he said, He wants to replace the old lines anyways.

Good info here. I'll be ordering some lines for the front here soon.

Glad you got the kit. I'm excited to see it.
