    How are they? I have the 881s now, but they are a little light for the extra weight I have added. Wheelers just recommended the 883s over the 882s to me , said they would ride better. They said the 882s are so long that they bunch up a bit in the coilover.

    yea i just don't find washing it to be worth it hahaha

    all depend really, You'll get more lift with the 882s..the 883s are about the same lift as 881s due to the similar coil length. just a high spring rate.

    The ride is great. On a stock front end the 883 is perfect. After installing budbuilts, tube bumper, and winch there was a little bit of sagging which I threw in some 1/4" as a quick fix. I'll probably be bumping up to 882s though.

    The only thing I am missing that you are carrying around is the winch.

    Ride was still good after everything was installed but it tended to flex a little more than I wanted it to. Hitting a bump while pulling into a parking lot and having the tires rub was getting annoying. The 1/4" spacer raised it and stiffened it up a bit and I didn't have that problem anymore.

    They were great with the smaller tires and before the bumper.
