    You sir are a idiot , you' re the type of person I enjoy getting all worked up on the Internet


    Hey guys I hear if you turn your suspension upside down they last longer ,and it doesn't ruin your cv axles because the angle is inverted. they actually last long and your wheel bearings and brakes will never wear out, because I used a diff drop kit that cost $75 dollars. That and I don't have to worry about the phase angle because I like drivshaft vibration. and why run actual suspension when I can do a block and spacer kit ,struts are struts and a shock is a shock it does the same thing so who cars about back spacing and ride height my taco is 10 feet tall and it's a 2020 and from the future and it's the best truck ever. And I run 45's and drive over Honda's with it

    Ps I'm sorry about your small penis and big ego

    just curious....I see people are using all different brands of upper control arms. I am wondering which upper control arms are best paired with the OME lifts. I am thinking about getting the camburgs, however I am not sure which of the camburgs I should go with. The other options I am looking at is the Total Chaos and the LRUCA's.

    Can you run a 1" block with an aal? I'm sure it's not "ideal" but I'm not replacing sub 8k mile let packs.

    Truck already has an aal on tsb pack but I need more rake

    In my mind I don't see it being any worse then just having a block back there. Or what other options do I have? Another aal? Helper springs?

    Just get another aal.. A 1in block will do more harm than good..aal will flatten out ..but take longer to die out that the block would

    Need some advice guys. I got some conflicting information today... Toytec said the 885 would be a 2.5" lift and Wheelers said the 885 would be more like 1.75". I was considering either 885 or 887. Long term plans are to add an aluminum front bumper ,winch with synthetic line, and bolt on sliders. I do tow a 3,500 pound travel trailer several times a year, so I figured the dakkars will be fine for the rear. Which coils would you guys recommend?

    I have an aluminum bumper, winch, and full armor so I have 886s.

    Edit: have about 2.5" of lift with them

    I gotta tell ya, I hear so many conflicting reports, I have to wonder about the consistency of OME's stuff. Maybe I am missing something

    I was under the impression that the aluminum bumper + winch wouldn't be heavy enough to warrant 886s?

    886's

    I put on 887's wanting close to 3" lift. Then I ordered a Winch, skids, and steel plate bumper.

    I'll probably have to switch to 886 when I get them all on.

    886's are designated for 220# or more I believe.

    In the end it's all about preference. 885/887's may work fine but will compress more easily with the weight load.
