    Anyone know where I could purchase a stock chrome or a black rear bumper to match my 08 Pearl Black Yota? I want to color match it but if I could get a good deal on a chrome one then... Thanks

    Haven’t had the chance to post here in a minute, but since my last update I’ve installed this used Bedrug(got it and a kayak for $120:eek:), finally got my front bumper powder coat matched and installed, installed my SOS full skids, installed my Smittybilt X20 winch, installed a $95 eBay grill(came out great IMO). Replaced the supercharger belt, changed the supercharger oil and replaced the plugs. Picking up my powdercoat matched SOS rear HC tomorrow, and hopefully installing this week :fingerscrossed:

    I'm running Bilstein 5100's in the rears, would the EL096R be compatible with those shocks? Also do you know if this would cause any issues with the drive line angles? Already running ~3" of lift with current setup- (OME 885, SPC UCA, 5100's all around, and 3 leaf AAL).

    The OME leaves will only provide about the same lift as you have but they flex quite a bit more. @EatSleepTacos can back me up on this. The 5100's won't be quite long enough get the extended 5100's / B110's

    Yeah b110 would be better but you’ll need extended brake lines as well. The benefit is if you ever go off road you’ll have a lot more flex and you won’t lift a rear tire as much.

    Your current shocks will work but they’ll act as limiting straps and prematurely wear out if you off road.

    Definitely get the extended brake hoses and shocks. I got the OME springs and I think the droop on my rear axle is excessive. I'll be taking measurements this Saturday.

    I was on 885’s, 5100s and an AAL but went to 886s (despite OME not endorsing this setup) and the 96L for my bumpers and winch setup. Dead level. Bed has a bunch of gear in it but no rack. My OEM leafs were dead from hauling way too much weight that the AAL couldn’t compensate completely for.

    I’m also using a 2.5* shim for pinion alignment to prop shaft but may have to increase to the 4* I have at the house since I’m getting the takeoff vibe. Will install my Mobtown steel plate bumper and see if it doesn’t bring the angle down a smidge before swapping shims.

    I just cut the bottom in the middle, and bent them like the backend of a fishing hook, but about 25% larger than the diameter of the cardboard tube. It Doesn't spin, but it's also locked in on the coat hanger. You have to pull, relatively, hard to get the roll off the coathanger lol.
