    The OP has the average lift people are getting with the Dakars based on their truck configuration expressed as centre of hub to underside of fender , measure your stock set up and compare that to the average for your truck configuration to figure out how much rear lift you can expect

    I have a ULK/Dakar combination and I do not believe the top plate spacers work with this kit. The top plate spacers are for the OME kit in order to take it from 2.5" to 3". The ULK is already adjustable to 3". You can crank the ULK up, beyond 3". Others on here have set it at about 3.5+"; however, I do not believe they were still able to eliminate all of their rake, plus, your CV axles/boots would then be at increased risk of damage. Most people experience rings in their CV boots if their ULK is cranked up too high, which ultimately leads to a boot blowout unless you pull the boots out and hose clamp them.

    Dakars without extra leaf. DCSB 4x4 w/ Snugtop cab high shell and about 100 lbs of gear (hi-lift, tool box, bug-out kit)

    Installed about a month ago, no heavy off roading yet. No shim yet, though there is vibration on take-off. Waiting for it to settle out a bit, if at all.

    Is there a front OME thread like this one?

    I'm running the stock lines but if you intend to flex out the rear to the max , extended lines are not a bad investment

    OK so, just installed yesterday.

    OME Dakar with
    $82 D29XL Leaf Spring
    D29XL add-a-leaf. Between bed mat, hi-lift, spare tire, bed rack, gas tank skid, and rear bumper, the ass end of my truck has about a 200lb. constant load. Hence the add a leaf.

    Hub to Fender:
    Driver: 25.25in
    Passenger:     25in

    Ground to Fender     (33in tire):
    Driver: 41.25in
    Passenger: 41in

    Bear in mind, this is the day after install. They're going to settle some, but I expect a final height around 40.xx in from the ground, 24.xx in hub to fender.

    The
    $82 D29XL Leaf Spring
    D29XL is the 4th leaf down. Below the 3rd leaf in the pack. This was where it fit in the leaf structure...slightly shorter than the leaf above it, slightly longer than the one below.
