    Considering I just used 887s and 5100s set at 0, I would say yes? I measured after installation it was a whopping 4.25" but after breaking it in, it settled to 3". And no clanking over speed bumps. But I do hear more road noise not sure if it's because of my lift and the drag it has created.

    Does the exchange rate for currency factor in as a part of the difference in price?

    Also, wasn't NAFTA supposed promote trade in North America???

    PS- Redleg for life. ARTILLERY FTW!!!

    Hey all, thanks to all the info on this site (and others) I am pulling the trigger on my Ome setup tomorrow to replace the spacer/block kit it came with. I have an 05 dclb w/ snug top camper (+/- 200 lbs) and am hoping it sits relatively level after adding the following-

    Frt coils 2885
    Frt strut 90021
    Rear leafs cs047r (- pack p & d)
    Rear shocks 60091
    kit includes cb drop, trim packer and bushings

    Also installing Light racing UCAs and u-bolt flip kit and shims if needed. I am hoping to hold off on 1/4 inch spacers unless it has too much rake for my tastes. My only question is about a sway bar relocate kit. I would assume there is no need for one unless there is contact. Relocating does not provide any benefit outside of that does it? $1,679 shipped for everything other than flip kit and shims($125 for shipping)

    Roughly 2.5 w/ 885s and 2.75 w/ dakars correct? I am ok with a slight rake, I use my truck for work and deliver tools, hardware etc frequently.

    Yes , but that basically means you will have factory rake only it will be 2 1/2" higher than stock
