    Yeah because basically his signature has a lifted truck with 31s in the picture. If you can't take a sec to even look at your truck or bother with the almighty google somethings wrong.

    I'm not a fan of the guys who bash repeated questions because if it hasn't been asked in awhile things could change or a search term may be to broad or short. But this discussion is bordering on ridiculous if you already lifted your truck and don't recall seeing leafs back there or you know, never bending down and washing the rear wheels, hearing about a TSB Dakar etc.....

    you should only stack an 883 with an 885 for dual rate springs, 2 885's would be redundant

    Installed my ome 887 springs. First picture is billy 5100s at 1.75 on stock springs. Second picture is set at 0 on ome spring without factory skid plates and sway bar removed. Taco lean is evident, and it's a smudge nose high until they settle compared to billys only. I'll take measurements later.

    I'll also post pics when I install my hybrid bumper this weekend.

    Currently have Toytec/Bilstein 5100 adjustable coilovers installed. Since adding bumper I have a lot of pre load on them to maintain my lift height. Very harsh ride. I'm trying to keep the lift and improve the ride for little cost as possible. My question is can I switch out the coils only with OME 887's? Will the 887 fit on that Toytec setup?

    Might not. The OME coils are formed like the stock coils. The bottom diamter is actually smaller than the upper. See here, the upper mounting diameter is smaller than the lower in the pic of the spring:

    Hmmm good point. Guess I could take my stock set up, put 887's and 5100's and sell my coilovers as another option.
