Old Man Emu: Questions, Answers & Pictures

Definitely not arguing. I just find it odd that they claim it compresses to about stock height. They only claim it makes the bump less abrupt, not that it adds any height to it.

 

I get that

My point is that the base of the Superbump is at about the same height as the tip of the stock bump

 

Sorry,
So I got the Full kit with Dakars in the rear.
885's up front, not running any armor yet.
I didn't get the measurements before... but after the front is sitting 38 1/4 and the rear is at 39 3/4 that is measured from the ground to the fender flare

tires are dynapro MT's 265 75 r16 on some method racing standards...
still running the sway bar for now

the tires are pretty quiet on the highway, I was expecting them to be louder. so far I couldn't be happier...

 

Looks great. You need to measure from center hub to fender flare though.

 

Just tell OZ you'll install them, then he'll stop beating you over the head about them

 

Don't care

 

Yes you do.

 

Not overly

 

LOL! You're not overly a good man, but a good man nonetheless. I hope you have a good weekend.

 

Haha, ok....i'll install them. Sometime before the truck dies or I trade it in!

 

The Dakars are meant for more weight/load, and don't flex as much as say... the All Pro leafs. That said, you're less likely to put your springs in negative arch daily driving. If you're going to go torture your truck as soon as its lifted you'd best install the bumps now. I'll definitely do the bumps, just not top of my list.

 

No plans on beating my new truck anytime soon. Some light off-roading is about it. Don't think I need to rush out and get the bumps.

 

What are your current measurements? I may have a "possible" solution for that shudder.

 

I'm installing my OME lift this weekend, and I know I'll need to get my alingment done. What numbers should I be looking at to be around? I'm running 265/70/17s

 

Seems like as close to {Caster 3*, Toe 0*, camber 0*} are the accepted values

 

I will be getting 886's to put on my 5100's with pelfreybilt bumper and a winch once i get measurements of available space under the lightbar on my bumper. Where is the best place to get the best deal on 886's?

 

Wheelers does pretty good. They have no sales tax. They are up in Oregon.

Head Strong Offroad (SoCal) is another great shop. They try to give you one of the best deals I've seen.

 

Oh sorry forgot to add I'm gettin TC UCA also. Numbers still the same as you recommend?

 

I believe so. I'm not sure what you can get out of those UCA's. I'm running LR UCA's so getting these numbers is easy.
