    Love it, no complaints at all. I've had Fox, Bilstein 5100's, and OME lifts now and have to say for simplicity the OME setup is awesome. I wouldn't spend the money on Fox ever again, if anything the 5100's are bit more comfy but not many people have done those on the GX so figuring out what notch to use wasn't something I wanted to do.

    Thanks for the feedback! I'm also considering Dobinson's. My buddy has Dobinson's MMRs on his but that's more than I want to spend. They offer a couple of other options besides the MMRs (MMR has remote reservoirs). His is "firm" yet feels controlled and compliant, more comfortable than a stock GX of the same year. I've got 886/5100 combo now on the Taco but I want more comfort in the GX. I will either have a slimline bumper on it or a full bumper and winch so I have to account for extra weight.

    Overall i'd say the OME is bit more firm than 5100's were on my taco, not bad though just slightly more. I have no experience with Dob's, they seem popular but OME has been around forever so I went that route vs the relative newcomer in Dobinson.

    Dobinson’s coils and shocks. SOS sliders, ditch light brackets, and front skid. Rigid ditch lights. BFG KO(dos) More minor stuff.

    I have Dobinsons on my Taco and my son runs it on his T4R. My Taco is almost as smooth as stock. The T4R came from OME to this and he loves the feel much better than OME.

    For what you want I say you can’t go wrong with ome or dobinsons. Stay away from 5100’s.

    First truck ever? I suggest you need stage 11. Let’s go ahead and schedule your appt for install, let’s add a regear for your 34s as well.

    Thems fighting words. :angrygirl:

    Get some tuned Kings. :drool:

    I’ve started the process to find out what’s available for my rig. Luckily my favorite tuning guy’s wife has the same vehicle. :)

    Where is the best place to buy a gun safe in the area? Looking to store some collectible poodle dolls.

    Would you tell me what brand wheels (rims) are on your truck? I think that style wheel would look good on my silver Access cab. Thank you.

    TRD "Beadlock" wheels. Came stock on some Tacos and FJs.

    Does anyone make that style in 17"?
