    After research I decided on going with ome 887, Bilsteins 5100 all around and rear 1.5” add a leaf.

    My goal is to get about 2” after settling in the front and 1.5” rear - slight rake but I plan to put camper and i tow so it will level out.

    is there anything else I need. I know ucas are good to have... do I need extended shocks or brake lines. I am under the impression a diff drop isn’t needed until after 2.5” lift as well as the needle bearing. Do I need longer u bolts???..
    Also any particular aal that’s better to give me close to 1.5” without going any higher?

    many tips/ advice welcome.

    I was gonna have one the local shops here do the install.

    Anyone know which aal will yield close as possible to 1.5”? I see some of the aal are at 2”....


    Will the back 5100s bottom out if I tow a boat or should I go with a different shock for the rear?

    Don’t get ome coils, they will sag. Spend a few hundred more and get Bilstein 6112s.

    5125 has a bit more travel In back or get the extended 5100s

    I seen those was thinking about it too...

    What brand springs come with that kit and they will give 2” lift up front with a 4x4 double cab?
