    I ordered the front OME shocks for my lift and was wondering if they came with the top stud mounting hardware (washers, rubber bushing etc...)

    Thanks

    Alaska, I don't know the answer but I'm sure someone will shortly. In the meantime, are you ordering all your parts separately? If so where?

    I assume your doing OME 885's as well. I am really close to getting the same stuff just not sure if I should buy a full kit or get stuff individually.

    The basic stuff I want is, OME 885 coils, OME n140s shocks, and TC UCA's. Is this sort of what you are going with?

    I went with the light racing upper control arms. Talk to Nuebs for the discount code for Toytec, and I found the TC UCA's at offroad warehouse in San Diego for 629.99 plus free shipping. I thought I'd try the Light Racing UCA's I hear they have all their problems worked out.

    That's what I did. I bought everything seperately. I went with the OME 885's, read AAL's, Billy 5100's all around and TC UCA's. And a bunch of other stuff here and there.;) But if I'm not mistaken, I think toytec has some pretty good priced sets.

    You re-use the top plate from your current shocks. I'm pretty sure there is a new rubber bushing, washer and nut. Don't throw anything away from the old shocks before you get the new ones all back together!

    I have another set of top plates, I want to build them up and just swap them out with the stock ones. If I end up selling this truck in the next couple of years I want to return it to stock. I just needed to know if I needed the fat rubber bushing and washers and nut for the top. I have everything else, just not sure if what I need is coming with my new shocks.

    You will need to order the Top Plate, and the rubber Spring Isolator. The New top plate will have the studs on them. The shocks will have everything else. :)
