    They're aren't new dakars. For your measurement question, you'll find it here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2nd-gen-ome-dakar-hub-to-fender-measurements.173193/

    I've already had squeak issues with the factory springs, guess it's the gravel / dirt roads around here or something.

    I don't think so but if you find a link be sure to post it up. I'd be interested for sure.

    My OEM springs did make some racket. Not my OME Dakars though. I did grease all the bushings and treat them to Amsoil Metal Protectant.

    @la0d0g Somewhere in the squeaky Dakar thread is a picture of new dakars someone received to test. Has spring isolators on the ends of all leafs and rubber in between every leaf at the center of the pack.

    I want to get a set but I can hold out for the improved version if they come out later this year. It would be just my luck to pick up a set now and as soon as I did the new versions start hitting the shelf.

    Define "settling hard" and then we can answer.

    Top spacers will do it on the cheap or 887s but then you might want to get new UCAs.
