    I have about a 200lb steel bumper and my taco is sagging. Decided that the OME coils 2886 are probably the way to go but I can't really find any info on what shocks these are good with. I want to buy these pre assembled if I can.

    Edit: there goes that. I see that the 9000/90021 series is totally discontinued. Funny how 2286 is discontinued

    Are the 4002 Coils any good? I found this kit but i dont know -

    Go with Dobinson?



    Yes, I am encouraging people to buy them to ensure they don't stop making the shocks I want to get.

    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    Like suggested above, Dobinsons makes a damn fine shock!

    The Nitro Chargers have been discontinued. 90000 Front shocks are got, they have been replaced with the 93000 Nitrocharger Plus Series and the 4002 and 4004 Coils.
    This is front the introduction of the MT64 line and switch from coils of different lengths and spring rates to a 2 coil system with a adjustable coil seat on the Nitrocharger Plus and MT64 Coilovers.
    the 2XXX series coils have been slowly discontinued over the last ~12-14 months.
    The Nitro Plus is the replacement and can be used just like the original kits for light and heavy loads.

    @hinmo24t You have the updated Nitro Charger Plus kit. You can tell by the Matte black coils and the updated shock stickers.

    What's a good alternative for a 2886 coil then? None of the 4xxxx series coils have a 660lb spring rate like the 2886 did! son of a gun man.
    I just need an affordable front suspension that can handle a heavy bumper

    Have you already purchased the 90000 shocks?
    If not the 93000 plus a 4002 coil is rated for a 0-330lbs front weight, like on a Bilstein you adjust the springs preload to increase weight capacity. Likely using the 20mm spring seat for that weight rating. Or run the 4004 which is a slightly longer coil allowing for a little higher weight capacity.

    No I haven't bought anything yet actually. I also didn't find many reviews on here about the 93000. If they can hold the weight then why not I guess

    The are almost the exact same shock at the 90000s, but almost the same valving. The reality being the light load front OME shocks were find with weight when paired with the right coil. Most customers didn't notice a difference compared to the heavy load shocks. They just switched to a coil preload system like the Bilstein 5100/6112 shocks use as they have proven to be a very popular shock. Pretty much every review of ride quality on the 90000, will be nearly identical to the 93000. Slightly stiff but a nice controlled, and do better the more weight you have.
