    I know I should have got 886's but was not sure about the arb. Well now it looks like I might be putting it n in the spring. Is it necessary to upgrade to 886's. How much will she drop.

    Thanks

    It won't hurt to put on the bumper and try it out, and then if you don't like the result, upgrade the springs to 886.

    But if you're putting ARB bumper on, with winch, with steel cable, you'll probably end up wanting to do that.

    Lots of stuff
    there are some that have the 885's with bumper/winch. Hopefully they will post up, but from the few I have contacted they don't mind it. Just don't plan on running tires larger than 265/75 without trimming

    I had 885's with my ARB and winch. It was recommended by ARB.

    I have 885x on mine with a top plate spacer. I can't remember if it's a 1/2" or 1/4" spacer. It's fine for everyday driving, but too soft for wheelin'. I'm swithching to 886x soon.
