    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    Hey guys, I have been following this thread but havn't had time to read the whole thing. I have an expedition one steel bumper going on in a couple weeks with a winch. So I'm going to be forced to do suspension upgrades. The OME nitrocharger kit seems like a good value. I'm under the impression i need 886 coils with the stiff shocks. As well as UCAs. Are cheaper UCAs good enough, or should I go billet/other?

    The truck will be used for moderate off roading. Not too much rocks, but a lot of jeep trails, mud holes, and riding on property that has recently been clear cut, so driving over stumps and downed trees.

    I don't want to buy new wheels unless I have to. So I was thinking of going with 255/85/16 on the stock trdor wheels.

    I don't mind doing CMC, but would rather not unless it is actually needed.

    Should this setup be good offroad? I dont care about looks, I want more capability.

    What would stepping up to an icon/fox kit get me over the OME?

    Thanks!

    Also with those tires it will depend on your wheel backspacing. If it's around 4.5 inches you won't have to trim at all or at least you shouldn't have to. Well thought-out set up my Imho
