    Hi there! Ive been doing some research and trying to get my lift figured out before I get my new truck. But its ganna be a DC LB.
    Im going Icons up front. But Im not sure what I want to do in the back. Im ganna get Bilstein 5125's in the rear. But as far as lift, I want something thats good for offroad and hauling some weight.
    How does the OME 2.5" lift leaf pack do offroad?

    dude congrats on the new truck i alway loved your old one shame it got smashed up. no real advise here lol although im sure the dakars perform well, they are a pretty reputable brand but then again no experience

    I am very pleased with the performance of the alcan 8 leaf. They are amazing offroad and very nice on road. Dan at Wheelers recomended them over the deavers when I told him I always carry some weight. I have a hard tonneau and may switch to a canopy.
