    Man. Nothing can ever be easy. Head strong is telling me if i get ome Dakars leaf pack that I have to get new rear shocks. My shocks are only like a 10,000 mile with no off-roading straight street. I thinking of just getting the complete ome package with uca. And I think that will be final. One time shot. I been looking at other site and I see it for 1,15o. 00 with free shipping on 4wheel online. Maybe I could selling my billies.

    Yes sir
    Yea, that might be your best/easiest way of doing it. Like you said, you can sell your billies, especially if they only have 10k miles on them. You should be able to get a pretty good price and not lose too much money on them.

    well there goes that under 1000. order the OME full kit with SPC UCA, finally!!!. And yes the 1/4 spacer for the lean comes with it, Thanks rngr. The whole thing with shipping came out 1575. I order it from headstrong they had the best price all around. That lady Marie is a very nice lady and very helpful. Not what I was expecting to pay. But I said F@#$ it. I'm not doing this again. One time. Cant wait til install it.

    Yes sir
    photobucket.com Upload the photo there, select the photo you like, and on the right there's a box with url's and one says "direct" on the left of it, click that url and come back here, click the "insert image" button when typing a message, looks kinda like mountains with a yellow background, the paste your url in there and you're good to go.

    They don't email you any nonsense all the time either which is nice, and if it's just a photo off google or something, copy the image url and paste it in the "insert image"

    I can't get the pictures in order. I guess the more I mess with it ill get the hang of it. My first set of pics are the billstien set 2.50 with stock coils. road like shit. and a rear 1.5 block in the back ever worst. the second set of pic speak for it self. I will post more when I get back from the alignment shop.
