    OME 885, dakar leaf pack. 265/75r16 duratracs "c". Back up camera. Scan gauge. Husky floor liners. Cal trend canvas seat covers. Topper and tacoma bed mat. Tailgate skin and cap. Differential breather mod. Intermittent wiper switch. Redline hood struts.
    So did we get an extra set of bushings for the dakars? The new ones only go in the bracket correct?

    Did they send us extra hardware in one bag?

    And how do you get the bottom of the shock in the damn mount?

    Yes theres extra bushings, I got two bags with hardware like that for the top of the rear shocks. The bottom of the shock in the front or rear? Front you need to use a pry bar to push down the lca's, make sure not to put to too much strain on brake lines if they're still connected.

    Sorry meant rear shocks. Got it in. Just took a lot of doing, was a tight little prick.

    I dont think that pic is of any extra hardware. The extra hardware is the double set of leaf bushings. If you look at the diagram, all those bushings, caps, and guide things are used on the rear shock top.

    Got it on. About 8 hours by myself. Quick spin seemed to do ok. One thing, I'm not sure if it is an issue or not but my upper control arm is pretty close to the tire. I can barely fit my finger between them. What say you guys?

    No I will not be upgrading UCA's. There's a few guys running 885's with 1/4" spacer (6.35mm) with stock UCA's with no issues. The 887's are 4mm taller than the 885's if I remember right so I'm sure we'll be ok.

    I'm just waiting on my brake lines...and the Arizona summer to give me a break. Then it's the OME kit, new UCAs, U-bolt flip, bump stops, and 17" tires!

    Thanks @ramonortiz55! The All Pro UCAs and this GB got me started down this path!
