    Yeah, may end up using 1/4" spacers for a little extra lift, still deciding. Thanks for your help on many questions, :eek:

    Yeah, headstrong link is same, but less money, different add a leaf manufacturer probably. Before you make a lift purchase try and read a lot on here and maybe make a post for help with everything you need, but I'd try and read up on suspension stuff first.

    Thanks. I'm reading, just not really comprehending. I learn about this stuff better if I can see them, more hands on.

    Later.

    I would love to see more of what people have theirs set on when running the OME 885 coils and what size tires running also. I am going to pull the trigger on the kit from Headstrong later today.

    Hmm, im running on the .85 clip with OME springs and top 1/4" spacers, no issues here. Granted im still only running the 2"aal in the rear. I plan to pick up the Dakar for 3" later this year.

    Im running OME's on the .85 clip on the billies, with 1/4" top spacer. Tires are 285/75.16s Duratracs, on the FJTT wheels with wheel spacer all the way arround. No wheel rub at all with normal driving. when 4 wheeling, the tires pretty much want to rip off the rear finders, 2"aal in rear. I actually have to remove them to go 4 wheeling.

    Added a Body Lift and that pretty much solved that issue, just need to get a new rear leaf pack.

    Had them at 1.75'' with stock coils for a while, no problems. Then had them set at 0'' with OME 885 coils and the only problem I had was my sway bar hitting my coil seat during suspension compression. Fixed with sway bar relocation kit from Toytec.
