Shock relocation


Works ok.

 

^^^ Such and awesome truck Adam ^^^^

 

I love them all!!! Nice rides all!!!

 

I thought I saw/read every OME thread on this site. Missed this one somehow!

Here's one pic....more in my build thread.

 

Missed this back when you posted. Looks bad ass!

I like the look of 265's with 3" lift.

bjboucher truck looks good, like to see some more pics on level ground!

 

Is the shock relocation to aid in articulation? I thought about doing something similar, but didn't know how well it would work

 

Did you look through my build thread? I think there's one or two in there. I need to take more pictures of it one of these days.

 

Hey All, I'm finally able to add my rig to this thread! Huge thanks to everyone else who posted as TW is where I did all my research. Thanks Lodi87 for answering my questions. I'm really pleased with the OME stuff, my truck rides even smoother than it did before.

Very nice! Like the painted sport wheels, what did you use? DCLB FTW!

 

Looks good! You could've saved yourself $30 on that diff drop, don't need 'em on the 2nd generation Tacomas. If you're having rear drive line issues, look into a carrier bearing drop kit as well.

 

^^^Very Nice^^^

 

Just installed this week:

Lovin it!

 

Thanks! I just spray bombed 'em. Its called "satin granite", got it at Home Depot.

 

Thanks! I've read so much about the OME stuff and it seams like people are split on installations and getting driveline vibration. I didnt have any issues before and I dont have any issues now after install. I had a friend put it in at his shop so he threw the drop in while it was up on the lift, he said it took like 10 minutes.

 

^^^Das ist Goot! YA!^^^

 

Anything more than just a spring compressor needed to assemble the fronts? I can't see paying Wheelers $158 for assembly unless there is something I'm missing.

 

No need for the spring compressor. *If your careful.
