OME 9000 & 885, need 1/4" or 1/2" spacer for a full 3" lift?

subject says it all.

 

Do you have an offroad bumper in front?

 

Everyone is saying put the coils on to see if it gives you the ful 3", if not, then put the spacer. I know on the 886's, samster said without a bumper and the coils with a spacer gave him close to 4"

 

With the 90000 the are a lot stiffer, so put them on and see how much lift you get. With my 886s with a bumper and winch I am sitting at 39" in the front with 285s

 

1/4"

 

Coming late to the party - 885's and 90000s = 3-3.5" of lift without spacers.

I doubted Chris 4x4 on that, and then went and remeasured. Lo and behold, he was right. Full 3" without spacers.

 

^^^hey Man are you a 4wd or prerunner? J/c

 

are there any cons if you get 3.5" with the coils and spacers if you have new UCA's? I will be putting my 885's and spacer on next week.

 

you will lose downtravel with the new uca's? not sure if i read josh's post right

 

Personally on my 885s and 9000s I got about 2.5 inches, I dont know why. I guess i do have maybe 70 extra pounds from the supercharger but IDK.

 

ah that is what i was hoping it wouldn't be, but it makes sense. and on wheeler's website they say the spacers will not affect ride quality, but it has to if you lose down travel.

trey, sounds like its hit or miss on whether you need the spacers for the full 3" of lift

 

I haven't taken any post lift measurements yet, but with my 9000's and top plates with dakars in the rear, I'm damn near level.

 

Mgrande , what do your cv angles look like at 3" up front ?

they looked just fine when I was down there last. This week I need to take a picture of them for you, mount my sliders, take my after measurements, and put my CB drop on. Some good quality time coming up....

 

Sounds good , thanks dude ,
