    Does the OME kit come with the axle shims to help prevent vibes?

    No. But you may be able to have the vendor swap the CB drop kit for it.

    I was told that the CB drop is a waste of money.

    I read a lot of folks experience where they reported it did not help. I went and purchased a 3* steel shim. I bolted it into the leaf pack and it's going in this weekend. I hope that does the geometrical trick for me.

    I went ahead and bought one with my lift... Think it was $12. I plan to install the lift and then if needed, give it a try. For under $15, better to have and not need then to need and not have.

    Just my opinion...

    DCSB 4x4 with no added weight up front. I am sitting at 22" hub to fender on both sides with 884x's using a 1/4" driver side spacer. I'm tossing around the idea of moving up to 885s. What are you guys using the 885s getting? I'm guessing around 22.5". Thanks.

    Yes. Or go the washer route for finer adjustment. You may need neither. You will just have to see after install.

    What are you doing to the rear?

    I like Dan @ Wheelers. That dude is always super helpful and prompt. Plus you get candy :) Never dealt with ToyTec so I can't say anything about them.
