billy lift alternative maybe?

so with the raising of the price of billys, and the fact that noone can keep them in stock, would it be worth just buying the ome 3" lift kit instead? My plan was billys on all 4, and 885's in the front, diff and carrier drop and shims with a toytec aal.... whats all your opinions? attempt to get some billys and do it, or hit up the ome lift kit?

OME wins

 

Will ome coils work with billys

 

Yes, as long as you keep the billys at zero

 

Well i was able to order up some billys, DSM had some in stock, so I'm committed to the billy 885 lift, which I'm excited for. 1 quick question tho, along with the shims, diff drop, and carrier drop, do i need to relocate the sway bar too? I have also heard on this forum that the carrier drop causes more problems by dropping it, anyone else heard this?

 

Please let me know where you buy the additional parts from, I got the same billys from DSM.

 

yep, trd sport 4x4. my truck already had a leveling kit, spacers and a block in the back, i get small vibs from around 32-45 mph, so i was thinking ahead and was going to buy the drop kits too

 

downsouthmotorsports.com has billys instock...just ordered mine last night....282 shipped for all 4

 

I have 5100's and 885's. Love it. The 5100's set at .85, but no top spacer.

 

i thought for this set-up you had to leave your billys set at 0 or else much damage.... how does it ride? what size tires?

 

Rides smooth, but i'm 2wd so I don't have to worry about cv's and I have aftermarket UCA's so I don't have to worry about ball joints.

My tires a 265/75/16 Hankook MT's.

 

I had to sway bar relocate with OME shocks and springs. Just barely hit on compression.
