    OK, so I have my lift ready for install on Monday. I'm starting to think I should have ordered this....I was under the impression the Dakars CS047R would be sufficient with the OME 885's with top plate spacer for a full 3" lift.

    Should I order the
    $75 D29XL Old Man Emu Dakar Extra Leaf Spring
    D29XL and just wait to do my lift later??? Or is this that big of a deal and just add it at a later date once they settle.:confused::confused::confused:

    How do you mean the regular Dakars might not be sufficient ?

    You would have to remove the leaf packs from the truck to add them later

    Sufficient in regards to my front being higher than the rear....Just wondering if I should have opted for the extra leaf.

    You'll get 2 3/4" on average from the regular Dakar pack
