    Yep, I have always done my own maintenance / mods, etc. Did my entire lift by myself. The leaf packs were a bitch, but I got er done. 600 mg of Advil afterwards...:D

    Why spacers on top of 886's , why 886's with the stock bumper and why no rear lift ?

    I didn't finish instaling everything yet. I'm gonna have a plate bumper with winch in the front and in the rear something like in the pictures:

    That looks great area 52!

    I installed a TJM T-15 and my front is sagging now with the Eibachs and 5100's. I am considering switching to OME shocks with 886 coils and the driver side lean spacer I already have. I am not running a winch but I want to get a full 3" lift back.

    Go with the OME trim packer instead of the lean spacer.

    Do you have a specific reason why? I am just curious because I already have the Toytec spacer.

    OME trim packer only works with OME shocks

    It goes at the bottom of the shock , this will still allow you to add 1/4" top plate spacers to each side for more lift with the stock length studs

    I don't have my invoice handy, but I think it was $1050 at 4Wheel Parts.

    Winch, bumper and install was $3,050

    Well I already knew all that. But using a 1/4" spacer on each side is a good point. 'Preciate it fellas.

    Oh man so true on the Advil. Just installed my complete OME lift. Did the feint first thn the dakars. Should have started with the heavy leafs first. It was all about leverage.
