    I got about a 2.5" lift both in front and back. The ARB OME website has a list of items you will need. Since my rig has a aftermarket Warn semi-hidden kit and Zeon Platinum 10-S winch, I went with a heavy load front and a medium load rear. It really rides and track pretty nice, just the breaking vibration that I need to figure out. I still have the stock wheels and tires on at the moment, but hopefully I will be putting some 33s on within a couple weeks. My friend at work who helped me with my install and is a huge off-road guy (highly respected) said he thinks the OME lift kit was one he would recommend after working on my rig.

    Like it? I don't fully understand how it stays put. The ONE thing I can't find a video of.

    Silver piece fits inside the vent and it clamps on to the bezel.

    And on the phone side there is a tab that is a bit like a quick release so you can easily change the size of the mount to fit your phone and it has a knob on the right side to tighter the phone down if you think you need it. So far I can put the phone in and take it out one-handed and it seems really solid.

    There is a hole with grommet you can use on the back of the cab that works great too so you dont have to run it through the hole under the seat

    Good info. I still have the stock wheels with 32” KO2’s. Might go with 33’s after a moderate lift. Contemplating going with the Billstein 5100’s on the 4th perch with stock OEM coils for now(1.55” of lift). Thanks. :cheers:

    I did a similar set up for my antenna. I'm curious on how you ran the antenna cable. Care to share? And if you are bored I have the install up on my channel.

    while I’ve not scratched mine, I’ve seen a bunch (here and FB) of posts about scratching the plastic when cleaning it using a microfiber towel.
    The radio I’m hoping it won’t show finger prints.
