    It's 4x4 dclb. Have about 2 1/4, maybe a touch more. Not exactly sure as it was a replacement lift and not from original stock suspension. I'm sure the ome will settle a bit, and i should probably measure again since I worked them pretty hard last weekend.

    What #'s should I be looking at after the alignment? I've read that caster=3.7, camber=0, toe=0 is good but what would be a safe cutoff? What #'s would really indicate I should get new UCA's? Thanks for the help!

    I go for 3, 0, 0. If a competent alignment tech can't get in spec you need them (I know, captain obvious).

    Do you have to worry about the OME shock length with the 887's...? Looking at getting this down the road. I imagine that OME would have given plenty of length for any spring.

    They're 402mm like the 886s right? If so plenty of people roll that setup.

    Edit: Can't remember the exact length and have had two beers :D

    I have 887's on my 2nd Gen 2014 LB with the Nitrochargers. I used Light Racing UCAs and Dakar Leafs in the back. It gave me more than 2" of lift

    The 887s are slightly longer than the 886s. I ran OME on my Jeep but only 2 inches with nitrochargers. Just don't want to max out the shock with the longer spring getting 3 inches.

    Don't tell ARB that... From their catalog, they list the 886s as 402mm and 887s as 400mm

    Yep. Was thinking lift heights I guess.

    Actual length on Headstrong Off-road shows the 2mm difference. I imagine due to the spring rate/coils you get more lift on the 887... Guessing.

    886s have a 660lb spring rate and 887s have a 590lb spring rate... 886s should be taller, the lift heights in the table above are because they factor in 200lbs hanging on top of the 886s.
