    alrighty guys, thanks for all the pushing, I finally pulled the trigger on the assembled version of the OME lift (885 springs, trim packer, and top plate spacer) with Dakar leafs, Total Chaos UCA's plus a Hi-Lift Extreme and AllPro Ubolt flip kit . Not too shabby for $2k I think. Going to pick it all up tomorrow and do the lift this weekend. thought about grabbing a set of extended brake lines as well but im going to check clearance before i buy them.

    A small handful of select mods.
    You will need them or you can fashion an extension to the bracket on the axle. I did this for the last 3 years no issue. I went with wheeler extended lines now since I did the shackle flip and got longer shocks.
    Paging Noah? Noah? Weren't you looking for some with a kick out? Good deal here.

    Running Moto Metal 950's. Not really diggin them, but scored them for 200 bucks for all 4 so cant complain there. And managed to snag a dealer special on 4-285/75/16 Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs for $850. So for now I am a "Budget Bawler":cool:

    Yeah, I am thinking I will just go buy the brake lines just for piece of mind. I am also looking at those sliders. I am seriously debating driving up tomorrow to grab them.

    Don't explain just say... wife I am buying me some sliders and you will like it.



    Oh and I have 2 spare bedrooms when you get kicked out. :D

    From what I have seen the kick out has a ton more benefit then a kick up. Just an opinion though.

    I can honestly say a kick up and/or kick out (on a slider) will cause you to get hung up on more things than it will protect your truck.

    I have not taken any body damage since I installed my high clearance rear bumper and sliders.

    Yeah I did it twice, it is incredible. I hate and love that mountain. Beautiful but such a long way up, seems even longer on the way down.

    Duratracs FTW. I had those (also 285/76/16) on my Taco. How'd you get the deal on those? I think I paid $1200 or so
