    If you are looking to start a lift and possibly "down the road" swap it out i'd go with OME. I kinda regret not going that route. I want to start swapping my stuff (FOX Shocks) out for better shocks/more "use out of my lift" stuff and I wish I would have gone that route first. I feel like I only hear good things about the OME for a lift better than a spacer lift but worse than "solid shock" lift. I don't really know if that makes sense. I just feel the OME is more like an OEM lift kit and then when you go bigger it starts getting more complicated.

    Yeah no it makes complete sense. I'd rather have adjustable coilcovers rather than basically one level which the OME is... what stage fox do you have?

    I bought them a few years ago as a group buy. They aren't a "stage kit." I bought them individually and it was actually cheaper at the time.

    To add to that, I think most coilovers are simply sold as coilovers. The "stage" part normally refers to the amount of stuff included in the stage package besides the coilovers. Unless I am mistaken, coils are normally 2.0, 2.5, with and without resi for extended travel.

    I think I'm going to end up going JBA UCA, Fox 2.5 Coil-overs, rear fox 2.0 and a AAL. What do y'all think? unibal UCA's like TC or Camburg seems like to much of a hassle to deal with with constant oil/repairing looking for something realistically low maintenance... or am I just being dumb.

    Im sure its a common name, but Im not familiar with JBA. TC and camburg will probably be decent for your area since I don't think you get the salt like NY does, but I could be wrong. I assume you are shooting for 2 inches of lift? If so, I think you could even hold off on UCAs for a little while if you wanted as they wont really affect your coils with that height.

    Thinking this is the route I'm going to take for my wallet and my sanity right now. 2 inches will probably work for now after a while though I know I'll want to go to 3. Appreciate your insight @Coot83

    No problem man, always glad to help a fellow TX! I have two inches on my ride and I don't even have UCAs.

    I know once I buy this lift it will be a slippery slope to mod the shit out of my truck. I just bought Caliraised ditch lights from the GB and I'm throwing them on tomorrow.

    Not sure about TXpro, but I am running full kings. Its a nice set up with full kings. I recommend compression adjusters as well, especially for the rear!
