    If you have OME post a pic or two & tell us what you got.
    tons more pics in my build thread. :)

    What did you put up front & what did you get?
    > OME 90000 NitroCharger Sport FrontShocks
    > OME 885 Coils - no top plate spacer
    > Light Racing UCA
    slightly less than 3" but I didnt measure that close.

    What did you put in back & what did you get?
    > OME N182 NitroCharger Rear Shocks
    > OME CS047 Dakar Leaf Spring Set -coated with ez-slide
    > OME FK29 Driveline Carrier Bearing Drop
    somewhere around 3" but again, havent measured that close.
    also have a slight rake still, which I like.

    Are you running trail armor & how much lift did you loose or what did you do to regain/maintain lift?
    no armor.

    Tire & wheel specs & rub or what you did to eliminate rub.
    > Stock Sport Rims
    > LT 285/70R17 BFG AT T/A KO
    > 1.25" Spidertrax Hubcentric Spacers
    trimmed the plastic alot and removed the front flaps. skipped the cab mount chop. no rub 99% of the time on-road.

    Are you still running a sway bar?
    yes, with a relocate. felt weird with the bar off.

    if you have specific questions, pm me or ask in my build thread. :)

    i have very minor rubbing towards the rear of the front fender (near the cab mount) it only rubs in reverse, or if i go up my drive way on an angle too fast. no rubbing on the fender or wheel well towards the front of the truck. (my alignment specs are not what i want them to be at my caster is at 1.4 and will get them to move that up to 2.8+++ probably this coming weekend, that should alleviate some the rubbing issues near the cab mount in reverse.

    i trimmed very very very little to hold me over till i get my second alignment. trimmed small pieces off the fender and wheel well lining near cab mount so far

    havent wheeled it yet so i dunno whats gonna rub off roading

    I think that will make it rub more becaues it will move the wheel farther back.

    I agree but some just do the front for UCA clearance.

    hmm... i was under the impression more caster was going to move the wheel further forward. other threads ive read said moving caster to 2.4+++ will bring the wheel forward towards the front bumper so it doesnt hit the cab mount. dont jack me up....
