    True. And, it's the slow season so you're more likely to get a deal.

    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    Sliders: aside my issues with the knockdown kit I bought, the BAMF are kickass! Dobinsons: yes, remote reservoirs not necessary...and as Dan said. Front bumper: Victory 4x4 Blitz. Nice bit of kit and just the slightest bit of cutting to fit. And inside, you'll want a Badland winch. Can't beat the bang for your buck.

    Yep, the 3 main things I need to do.
    Get the aal on,
    get those mobtown sliders from @Shellshock,
    Then get myself some front Dobinsons.
    Hopefully that will set me straight for awhile. :thumbsup:

    Without patience I'd probably be unhappily sitting on a full OME lift kit.

    Instead, I decided to piece it together for my liking and learn from your mistakes. :rofl:

    I bought the rear shocks.
    I could not find a full kit that I liked every component of.

    I had OME coilovers on by Bilstein 5100s, and OME AAL. That was the best on-road/off-road aftermarket suspension I've used. The Boss 2.0 I have now (don't laugh) is ok off road, but really firm for daily driving, and is garbage when it gets cold and rides like I have no suspension at all. If I had infinite money and fewer expensive hobbies, I'd have bought the components separate rather than in a kit.
