    Perfect. They are longer like an 887, but heavier duty for a front bumper/winch. Expect the ride to be a little stiff up front until you get armor on.

    Also, I recommend installing everything at once- including the leafs. You will need extended brake lines in the rear, at a minimum. I am certain you can get good ones where you work; I bought mine from Headstrong Off Road.

    Although not necessary right away- consider bump stops (especially if you are getting armor). I like the Super Bumps from Wheelers Off road. I have them on all four corners. :thumbsup:

    **One thing to consider about OME shocks- I believe they are the same length at OEM shocks. (Anyone one here correct me if I am wrong). I believe they did this so you do not have to change out brake lines...

    I'll be running steel front bumper. Full skids. Sliders with kick out and top plates in the very near future and will be adding a winch sometime before Texas/moab trip

    886 and 887 are within 1-2 millimeters of each other.

    I added rear brake lines, since I have a "Custom Build" for Dakar Icon rear extended length shock.

    So I finally had time to get my light bar correctly wired and switched and tested :woot:

    What a pain in my ass this was, doing it the right way...also 2nd Gen is inferior to 1st gen for running wires out or into the cab

    Headlights only
