    The 883s will ride much stiffer then the 882s especially without the bumper. They will handle the bumper better tho too.

    882s don't really give TONS of lift anyways. since your a v6 id say like 2.5'' after the settle and lower still with the bumper.

    Dude i don't care lol This thread is 3/4 BS and 1/4 build :p

    good choice on coils..honestly if your gonna get the OME coils id get the nitrochargers..they are suppose to ride much better as they are made for eachother. Might as well.

    haha ahhh Ben, this place would be no fun without you tho :p haha


    when they say the valving is changed for a more responsive feel..that means the valving is tighter usually and that generally nets a rougher ride. It'll feel great hauling ass over stuff but going slow it'll be a bit more rattling.

    I know you are wanting a smooth even ride pretty much all around up front so thats why id go with the normal nitrochargers.
