    3" OME lift 885s & Dakars riding on 33" KM2s
    OME 884s will only give your DCLB around 2"
    OME 885s will give your DCLB 2.5"
    And a 3 leaf progressive AAL or Dakars depending on if you want to level or maintain rake.
    Yes the ride will be firmer but smoother than stock (most feel stock is too soft).

    nice, and looks good! I got a “stall mat” from tractor supply and cut it, It covers the hole bed. I have pic in my build if anyone wants to see it.

    i got it for $43 a lot cheaper than the OEM one.

    Might there be a flywheel problem going on there, the ring gear? Did they check that?

    haha, I did the same thing a week after getting my truck. got a mat out of a full size Chevy and sliced it up with a box cutter (total pain in the ass because MAN that thing is thick...) fits like a glove though!

    :thumbsup: on paying it off!

    Could be a damaged flywheel on the Celica, or the gear spacing wasn't set correctly when the 2nd and 3rd starters were installed.

    I yanked my screens out./ No real need for them. I think a fan in the bed is a more practical thing.

    I wanted them for my dogs, I think they'd like some airflow.

    I agree they WORK, but I have ridden in the bed on a mild day. The radiant heat from the bed, road and lack of real air flow really was getting to me in there.

    I had the front slide open & both side windows. It really was an un bare able 45min ride. For the dogs, crack the windows open enough for them to stick their heads out and stick a wooden dowel in the tracks so it cannot open any further.

    OR get one of these in its various forms to promote ACATUAL air flow back there.
