    The other way to go is to use the 885 springs and put a 1/2" top plate spacer on. (You could re-use the one from your Revtek kit) If you replace the UCA with one that has more articulation, then you'll end up with a bit more downtravel, which is nice when going over highway expansion joints, speed bumps, and such.

    If you do that, you probably ought to space out your bumpstops a bit, but you probably should do that with the revtek kit as well...

    How much front lift should I expect from OME 90021s and 887s?

    2.75 to 3". :) Mine were at about 2 7/8 when first installed. They have since settled to 2 1/2 or less since I added all the extra weight.

    Awesome! I can't wait to get my 887s on. I know in the future I'll go big with Icon and stuff like that but I'm just trying to get all the major stuff out of the way until I go changing my suspension again lol. I have like 1.75" in the front right now with my 884s that I made a novice mistake in buying.

    I think you could factor doubling what the difference in spring height is for your actual lift height. It goes along with getting 1/2" of lift from a 1/4" top plate spacer.

    He said 4-4.5" of lift from the 887 coils. You can factor whatever you want in, but the height difference between the 885 and 887 coils is like 5mm and the spacer is to correct the lean since there is more weight on the drivers side so that's not even a factor. Again my statement regarding the lift he said he achieved and the difference in coils still stands. If the 885 coils provide about 2.5" of the lift than the 887s should not yield a 2" increase. I would say someone has measured something wrong or the 887s he received are not 887s.

    I put the 887s on about year ago. Was running the bilstein set at 2.5" with a spacer to get a full 3". It's so much smoother with the 887s now.

    Do you know if they make a spring with the rate of the 886 but the height of the 887? I'm about to get a plate bumper and I'm worried about sagging with my 885s.

    Thanks. I was under the impression the 886 had the same height as the 885.
