    Hopefully ordering my full OME setup from Wheelers tomorrow :D
    can't decide, 882s or 883s? I will be going to with Dakars and extra leaf also. Is there anything else outside of what is in the package that I need?

    Thanks in advance,
    Jay

    BPV relocator. It's on wheelers as well. Oh, you may need some new eye bolts if you cant reuse your old ones. I had to cut mine out because they were so tough to get out.

    This Also, Wheelers had these also. This site has a better description and instructions.....
    http://www.lowrangeoffroad.com/inde...ma-fitment-kit-rear-exhaust-bracket-fk21.html

    4WD, they will most likely recommend 883s with 10mm trim spacer to keep from severe CV Angles...

    Completed my EMU 881 and Bilstein 5100 install this weekend. Man I wish I had just had Wheelers pre-assemble everything for me. Tried saving a few bucks, but by the time a rented the spring compressors and spent the time tearing everything down It would have been worth it.

    If you order everything separate, make sure you order the Bilstein washer kit.

    Has anyone run into any issues with defective Dakar's? After TDS weekend I noticed my driver side rear leaf seems to be sagging. I've got about 2 inches more fender well clearance on the passenger side. I haven't gotten under there yet to check it out completely but I don't even have a thousand miles on them yet :confused:

    I have absolutely zero experience (and I'm kind of an idiot) with this, but I have read a lot researching out this lift kit...

    ... are you sure you installed the rear leaf springs on the correct sides? They are side specific, eg driver vs passenger.

    Yep, they're installed on the correct sides. I also lost one of the strap bolts but I don't see how that would effect them.
