OME lift vs Ultimate Lift

I'd be interested to see if most folks would even notice the differences... and on the level you tracked and compared is totally intense.

Thanks chris!!

 

since were talking OME...how does the firmness of the ride with OME shocks/springs compare to stock TRD O/R? or from 5100s?

 

OME shocks > 5100s

I preferred my ride with the OME rear shocks than my Billys...

 

Have not ridden alot or offroad at all on the 5100s. But they were decent. I am VERY happy with OME shocks and springs so far.

Super smooth compared to the TRD sport set up.

 

i was pretty much sold on the OME kit anyway but now im definitely ordering it...soon...thanks for the input guys

 

They can charge so much more for the preassembled coilover kit because it's more convenient. And some people will pay a lot of money for things that are require less work. But as far as shock quality goes, I'm all for the OMEs. They are very solid and well built struts.

Not to threadjack, but why do Delmarva, kmoney, and badguybuster have the same avatar? Just thought I'd throw that out there.

 

My OME shocks and coils were very dissapointing. I think I sold them after I put 1,000 miles on my truck. I thought my truck rode better on and offroad TRD stock than with the OME coils and shocks. But to each his own..

 

Did you notice a big difference with the Icons? I'm about to order the same setup - Icons with TC ucas. How does it ride for you?

 

A very noticeable improvement in ride for me. I like it so far. I was having some alignment issues at first but that was my fault.

 

I am leaning towards that OME lift kit. It appears to have the one thing that I look for over anything else - bang for the buck.

 

I have a bad vibe about ome and I dont know why.
it's lame cause i seem to be hearing more good about ome than billy these days.

 

Dude I want to see some pics of your truck. Your setup looks sick in your profile.

 

I have about 4 inches up front now. I will be raising to 5 inches on Monday. The heim joints are still in the box till Monday, so cannot say much about them yet. But will update as soon as they are on.

 

Anyone know a good rate to get the ome kit completely installed. If you own this and had it installed could you enlighten me please as im seriously considering?

THanks

 

The OME kit from Toytec comes with the Diff Drop...what are thoughts on using this?

It seems to be more common on this site but strongly discouraged on TTORA. Some actually reported the diff drop causing their vibes. Since it's only raising the front 2-2.5" it may not provide the benefit it does to those raising 3" or more.

I can save $29 if I eliminate the diff drop (or get it and sell it for $30 ).

 

I cant see how the diff drop would cause more harm than good.

 

thats not good
i just saved enough to buy the ultimate but here im reading that the other kit is better???
