OME suspension kit???

Hello
subject truck: 2005 Tacoma 4x4
OME suspension kit heavy kit vs light load kit?

which kit is better, is the heavy kit going to ride harsh, I assume stiffer?

someone recommended go with heavy, but I am not sure which is better.

my Tacoma is completely stock

thanks

 

The heavy kit is the 886 coils designed to be used with a steel aftermarket bumper and winch , the light load kit is usually the 885 coils designed to handle less additional front load

Are you going to add a heavy bumper and winch ? and how much lift do you want ?

 

I just wanted the 2" lift kit, but no heavy bumper or winch

 

885's then

 

I have the 884s and got 2 1/4" in the front, I tow so I wanted more lift in the back.
885 can get you 2 1/2 to 3" in the front...
the 884s ride great...

 

I have an 09 AC and I ordered the 885's, I plan on getting a winch and plate bumper at some point, But not for another year or so I figured I would see how it rides with the 885's, and I might upgrade after if it dips a lot in the front.

 

If your truck is stock, it will sit very high with 885s and no additional weight in the front.

 

Oh well, too late. I'll just have to put a rush on getting a plate bumper and winch to even it out

 

reading on some OME install posts...

for a 2" lift
- you need to change rear brake lines to a longer ones?
- relocate front sway bar?

are this a must when installing a 2" OME suspension lift kit?

 

- no , but if you are fully flexing your suspension it's not a bad idea

- maybe , some people have the sway bar contacting the coil , some don't , they are cheap though so just do it
