    I'm thinking I would be good with this swap. Question is how long you willing to wait to do it? I'm about to leave for Arizona for 2 months here in June and where to meet for it. Raid @Texoma house?

    Nice to know those will work together. :thumbsup:
    When I ordered mine I thought about 886's and the Toytec rep said the 886 required the 90000 and wouldn't work on the 90021.

    I’m in no rush if he’d allow it or you can drive to my casa I got the tools also for it. Either way plenty of beers, his fridge is bigger though.

    Yeah, they work well. Headstrong gives the option between the two when ordering their OME kit and I remember @hoverlover at one point said his 887 setup ran a little stiff at the time. The only incompatibility that I'm aware of is the 886 don't work with anything but OME shocks, eg Bilstein 5100 don't work

    The mods have probably changed since last update.
    Hi all and happy Friday. Sorry I've been away for so long. Had to move into a new apartment downtown and work has been kind of a bi$tch recently.

    I'm probably thirty pages behind on the thread, but what's the quick rundown on the Cota T&T meetup this weekend? Looks like its going to be hype and saw a instagram pic from TTC yesterday. We convoying down there or just meeting up at the place?

    I'll bring my big trash can, eggs, bacon, and hopefully some salsa if I manage to talk the parental into making some.

    looking for suggestions.
    I'm planning on adding the OME Add-a-leaf (PAIR) - EL46XL to my Dakar's (have non heavy duty currently) Headstrong's site claims this will raise the bed of my truck an additional 15mm or 19/32". I have OME 888's and currently sit with a slight nose low rake. What do you guys suggest I do to the front so it is close to level but retains a minimal nose down rake. I was thinking of
    1. going to 886's
    2. adding 1/2 top plate spacers
    3. changing to adjustable coilovers.

    Any opinions, suggestions or ideas I haven't considered?

    1/2 plate spacer 886 will ride stiff AF without some weight.

    886 is taller and stiffer than 888. Top plates are your cheapest option. Adjustable coil overs are your nicest option.
