I noticed a guy on ebay selling a set of ProComp MX-6 for the H3 w/no lift

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/4-Pro...spagenameZWD1V

What I found interesting is that he claims

Due to the Independent Front Suspension on this vehicle, the front MX6 shocks are NOT adjustable!
They are pre-set on the 3rd setting for a good ride.
The rears are still fully 6-way adjustable.


I was hoping for a set of adjustables for the front end one day but maybe thats not possible? Anybody have an idea why the front shocks cant be adjustable on an IFS?

Most vehicles are IFS, like the Corvette and adjustable shocks are available.
Does sound strange.

Thanks for all the input. My wife bought me a set on the Bilsteins for Christmas. I just got them installed a couple of days ago.

I ended up taking five full turns to get the two inches of lift with the stock torsion keys. The total time taken was only about 45 minutes, including the realignment of my headlights.

The ride is the same except I have noticed the truck leaning more on turns due to the higher center of gravity. My wife said she noticed bumps a little more, but I was driving much slower since I was getting used to the difference in handling.

I took a few after pics (sorry, forgot to take some before the lift). LINKY

Thanks again to everyone that contributed to this thread (and others).

Now to take it in for alignment . . .
