    i would, but shipping to a tiny island 6,000 miles from nearest seller isn't cheap.

    I debadged it, had to work a whole bunch and put on a K&N in time to deploy. Now my wife controls the money and hopefully I have enough when I get back to get her washed. Soooo... mods are in progress?
    I looked at that website, and save for the UCA and the bushing inclusion, I am pretty sure that my original post is the same kit. I don't believe it is an AAL, i think they are full leafs. I will look deeper into the part # though. Thanks again.

    New to this thread... but Ive read through about the first 20 pages. Planning on ordering the full OME 3 in with Dakars in the rear. I still can't decide what coils I want. My truck is a 2.7 AC so I feel like 885s will get me all the lift I need, because I don't have anything in the front like a plate bumper. I guess what I still wonder is if the 90021 soft rides are a better choice than the 90000 series for my truck. Suggestions? Thanks

    I have the 90021 (soft) shocks and they are stiffer than the factory shocks for sure. I feel the bumps.

    And I'm running highway tires not 10-ply OffRoad tires.

    I have the 887 springs which are exactly the same sitting rate as 885 just slightly taller.

    I've pretty much decided on the 90021's with 855s. This should be about the best ride I can get with this kit... Also Im coming off of a block kit so I mean anything has to be better than what I currently have lol

    Posting this for reference
    I ordered it because I have two ++ leaf packs. I might make a custom shim that's a little bit thicker using this as a template
