    Wow a lot of work. The suspension parts and UCA's were easy. The LCA's, hubs and driveshafts not so much. Still have to cut off one LCA, put the new calipers on and so much more I don't want to think about it. This is way more work than I thought it would be. With 182k miles on this thing, nothing comes off easy.image.jpg

    So I did a thing today and installed my OME Lift kit on my 2016 SR 4x4 5 speed! Thanks to @ramonortiz55 group buy & @Low Range Off-Road had to wait 2 months for it but it was well worth the wait. Here is the list of parts cause I'm sure people will ask what I'm running! And a big thanks to @MidnightRebel07 for spending most of the day helping me installing it. I owe you big time!!!!!!

    Just on the 5 mile ride home from work I can tell that the ride is so much better than the stock suspension!!!

    Lift numbers center of hub to bottom of fender:
    Stock suspension:
    Front: 21"
    Rear: 22"

    OME Lift suspension:
    Drivers Front: 23.75"
    Passenger front: 24.00"

    Drivers rear: 24.75"
    Passenger rear: 25.00"

    Tire size 265 75 16 Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs Load Range C

    OME Suspension Kit
    887 coil springs
    Nitrocharger struts and rear shocks
    Dakar Leaf springs
    OME differential drop kit
    OME 5mm taco lean spacer
    @Low Range Off-Road 2" extended stainless steel brake lines (These are a must if you are installing dakar leafs cause you need the extra length to just install the leafs :rofl:)
    Light racing upper control arms from @HeadStrong Off-Road
    @Wheeler's Off-Road sway bar relocation brackets
    @Wheeler's Off-Road stock upper control arm bolts

    Definitely need the extended lines for the Dakar leafs! And if you don't have the sway bar relocation the sway bar will most likely hit the coil!

    Tight on normal driving? You realize with any flex in the suspension they will be stretched and ripped right?

    Hmm. Ok. What lines you use? I've read before that bleeding these are different than older vehicles. Any issues with that?

    You can do it without the extended lines but the brake hoses will be really tight at full drop, I'd recommend putting them on that way you wont have to ever replace them since they are stainless!!!!
