Pro comp 3" coil spring fj lift with 5100

Is there any success stories in this combination and stock UCA's or any experience at all ? Price seems nearly identical to moog fj springs.

I got 5100, just trying to find inexpensive springs for 2.5 or 3 inch lift.

Anyone at all ?

Rear springs should fit better than moog fj and preload is less aggressive so that means flexibility during offroad should make better traction.

Just wanted to know if someone had combination of pro comp fj springs lift paired with bilstein 5100 with good results, with or without aftermarket UCA's. I want to get those springs because they are cheaper alternative to OME coil springs which provide lift without adjusting bilstein 5100 perch on the front. Basically i need a opinion based on experience with those parts.

The brand of the spring doesnt matter as much as you think. Google the length of them (how much lift you would get) and the spring rate(how firm or soft they would feel) and compare against dobinsons for example (as they have a lot of options that are outlined in great details).

As far as the need of aftermarket UCA - it's recommended to get one. More so on the lifts higher then 2".

Thanks guys, i appreciate your input. I wish i could cough up double for OME. I will try to dig info on spring rate and firmness, thats very good idea i didn't even think about.
