    3" OME lift 885s & Dakars riding on 33" KM2s
    Only if you put a heavy plate bumper & winch on it.
    886s will give you more than 3" and you don't want that.
    885s will probably give you around 2.75"

    What did you put up front & what did you get?

    885's & Nitro Charger struts
    Before
    LF 20.0" RF 20.5"
    After
    LF 23.25 RF 23.5"

    What did you put in back & what did you get?

    Before
    LR 21.5" RR 21.5"
    After
    LR 25.5" RR 25.5"

    Are you running trail armor & how much lift did you loose or what did you do to regain/maintain lift?
    No trail armor.. yet. planning on adding a rear bumper with swing out tire carrier.

    Tire & wheel specs & rub or what you did to eliminate rub.
    Are you still running a sway bar?

    standard 265/70/16's on stock rims as of now. 285/70/17 on SCS Stealth 6's will be on in the next few weeks so I will edit this post when that happens.
    No sway bar, truck drives great on road

    Full OME lift 885's with Dakar leaf springs. LR UCA's. ImMrYo relocation bracket.
    I just did my OME and had the dakars installed. I purchased my lift and had it installed by Cruiser Outfitters ([FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1](801) 518-3937[/SIZE][/FONT]). They put in the new bushings, I am pretty sure he has them in stock.

    So was thinking again... If I go with 886's will that put my DCLB over 3". I plan on doing a hidden winch up front (and really like the added shackle posts!). That won't be for a little while so would I be ok until I put that on? I know they would be stiff but that doesn't bother me.

    Thanks, BAMF sliders look good too. Did you get the kick outs?
    886s will probably put you over 3" before the winch, you might be OK after the winch. Do the CV boot slide if you put the 886s on before the winch.

    Thanks

    after the winch, would I need top plate spacers to stay at 3"? I want 3" full inches to be able to run 285/70/17's...

    No, but you'll still need to trim for 285s.

    No kickouts, but now i am thinking that i should have. My wheels stick out pretty far so they might stick out farther than the sliders by a hair. I guess i wont know until i get them mounted.
