Don't you have my stock leafs as well? Should drop those in

 

I do have the stock leafs and now I’m thinking I will drop them in and maybe sale the AAL. That or replace the front coils and shocks for something bigger.

 

Either or you can probably sell that Icon AAL set though as you already have an AAL installed.

 

Who knows, could be skyjacker or something.

 

What do you guys thing coil/shock wise would fix it in the front?

886’s with nitros?

 

Pretty stiff if you don't have any weight up front. 887's about same height but for regular ish truck weight.

 

There was a guy down in pyuallp sellin em.

 

TSB leafs with AAL me thinks. Did you use the 3rd gen coils up front? Your front is at like stock height. I thought I saw somewhere the 3rd gen coils are a different rating than the 2nd gen stock coils. And the 3rd gen should give you an inch in the front over stock. I'd leave the rear alone and bring the front up to match. I think 886's are suited for some extra weight in the front? Not sure. OME makes a couple different coils with different designations.

Looking again, your old coils don't look to be factory? Somethings goofy there between what you took off and what you got. The shocks/struts look to be different lengths.

Btw, coils are side specific pretty sure also. But you don't seem to be experiencing taco lean so I'm guessing you have them on the right side.

 

Old coils and shocks were not stock I do know that much. And the 3rd Gen is supposed to bring it up an inch. But it’s leaning looow in the front. I know the length between that blow out shock/coil is way different then the 3rd Gen.

Getting those shocks out was hard as hell. Put the new ones in? Easy because of how much smaller they were. I was thinking 886’s for the eventually ARB to come.

 

If you're planning on a bumper then go for it.

 

Yeah I gotta say I think I agree with ya

 

Read up on the "over speed bump goes clunk". Ome shocks have aggressive rebound, and with the 886's and no weight that will probably be more exaggerated.

 

Thank you, I do remember your last few posts now. When I saw it I was Immediatly wondering about your short new shocks and your longer old shocks.

 

Damn they are 17’s I almost called.

 

He’s definitely in the running for biggest bull I’ve seen in the Willamette Valley

 

Damn!! Where is that about. Seems like the herd In the coburg hills that live on Egge private property.

 

He’s in the Trask unit, not Coburg at all haha.

Getting the truck packed to head down to KOH after work tomorrow!
