well ...
your opinion is what counts - if you like it you like it. some guys like big girls and some like dudes - not trying to change anyone, just inform.
my personal experience with procomp besides not being a 4" kit and causing tires to jam in the wheel housing (which probably bugged me the most) is ... front springs popping out continuosly even after purchasing and installing limiting straps, stiff ride, shock bushings defective (i know this was Daystar defect - but), replacement shock bushings popping out, driveline vibrations, and all the time and effort trying to FIX problems which most stemmed from the fact Poorcomp is not a true 4" lift.
let me know when you hi-center on your procomp (3.5") "4" inch lift and i'll be glad to pull you out!

joints
all quality manufacturers come with johnny joints - currie, teraflex, etc. these joints are rebuildable, offer around 20-30 degrees rotation side to side, prevent excess stress on vehicle, greasable, and help eliminate bump steer caused in rigid/solid uni-bushing's that only rotate up and down.

Too bad yours didn't work. I bought the ProComp 2.5" lift and it resulted in 4" of lift after everything - including winch. Better than stock ride and superb lift.

no more driveline vibes!!!!
just want to note - after installing teraflex springs (to finally complete my teraflex lift) - NO MORE DRIVELINE VIBRATIONS!
for 2 years i've had driveline vibes with the PoorComp springs - spent weeks adjusting and re-adjusting arms, and lots of $$$'s taking to shops trying to adjust out the vibes thinking it was the pinion angle.
appears the TeraFlex flexible arms and PoorComps stiff springs was the culprit all along.
