    I have a bit of extra weight up front, it has sunk the 885's a little.

    That mobtown receiver + compressor seemed to be more than I thought.

    the compressor is surprisingly heavy lol. With the new setup your definetely going to need the 886's.

    Going to get the 2nd one of these finished up, so I can then put them on my rig this weekend.

    This will allow me to ensure they are correctly fitting before I pass the template onto other TW members :cookiemonster:

    Glad I decided to clean up the brakes and put some anti-seize on the pins. Got them done at a 'shop' and they only put the top pin through one pad on the passenger side. Had to dremel the pad to make it flush again after correcting it. :facepalm:

    If you have to time, go ahead. however with the 255's you probably won't need them. I know I never had issue. If you got to 285's you'll probably need them, but you never know. I only did the cab mount chop when I got to 35's

    Going to be dumping photos here for ya. Rainy day out my way so perfect for working in the garage.

    Base plate is 1/4” and it will be gusseted. The holes aren’t perfect but I’ll be making you some heavy duty washers. I will also be giving you some hardware as a guide. Just have to get it in grade 8.

    I will be cleaning it up a bit more. This is just roughed out. Let me know what you think.

    886's and All-Pro rear stainless steel lines went in last night. I guess the front had sagged a bit like @Norilsk said it would with 885's and that mobtown bar :wink:

    (Height messured from center of wheel to edge of fender, I have no fender flares on my truck currently)

    OME 885: 395mm in height 590 pound spring rate - 55 CM 21.65 Inches

    OME 886: 402mm in height 660 pound spring rate - 58.5 CM 23.0315 Inches

    Put a workout on the new springs today again, 5 hours of fun wheeling

    The recovery boards are now RIP, every single one is shattered and exploded. I have no complaints for the price. I used these things way to much today. They probably went under tires 10 - 15 times just today.

    I think I may get a set of maxtrax and see if they hold up to what I put recovery boards through.
