    Hey Folks,

    So I'm preping on finally doing this. Yeah been talking about it for a while, but every time I'm about to pull trigger, something goes wrong with the house or what not...

    So Below is what I'm thinking about. At the bottom are all the choices that I picked and the total. Am I missing anything and is that a reasonable price? I'm not taking this thing on the Rubicon or anything (I got a work vehicle for that), but I am adding weigh to the truck and want to go to places with a little security.

    OME Old Man Emu 2-3″ Lift kit (2nd Gen Tacoma)


    $882.20

    Starting at $80/mo with Affirm. Prequalify now

    The OME Old Man Emu Suspension for the 2005-2015 Tacoma is a tried and true cost-effective way to lift your Tacoma 2-3” while not using spacers for lift. If you are looking for a better ride both on and off-road this is it.

    DISCLAIMER

    **OME Suspensions are designed and engineered with ride quality in mind. Please note that medium load coils are designed for vehicles with extra front loads such as a steel bumper and heavy load coils are designed for vehicles with full front load weight such as a bumper and winch combination. Rear coil springs/leaf packs are also designed with additional weight in mind. Using medium or heavy load springs without the proper added extra weight may result in a decrease in overall ride quality during vehicle operations.**



    Current lead time: 4 weeks

    Select Front Coil Configuration *
    2884 Light load (stock weight): Provides 2″ lift
    2885 Medium load (100lbs-200lbs): Provides 2.5″ lift
    2886 Heavy load (200lbs+): Provides 2.5-3″ lift




    Select Front Shock Configuration *
    OME-90021 – Nitrocharger Sport Shocks – Softer Valving
    OME-90000 – Nitrocharger Sport Shocks – Firmer Valving




    Select Leaf Pack Configuration *
    51100 Icon Add a Leaf – Light load (stock weight): Provides 2-2.5″ lift

    All aftermarket leaf options include bushings, Ubolts, and driveshaft spacer




    Add Front Differential Drop Kit *
    Reduces inner CV angle by 3 degrees.
    Reduces friction wear and tear on stock length axle inner CV boots with auto locking hubs.
    1″ thick zinc plated steel spacers and grade 8 hardware are included.
    Some vehicles may require additional washers to reinstall the factory skid plate.




    Add Upper Control Arms *
    OME: Built-in caster upper control arms by Old Man Emu
    SPC: Fully adjustable to set your own caster while allowing more down travel




    Assemble Front Shocks *
    Take the hard work out of assembling the front shocks and coils, assembling the front shocks is the most difficult step of installing this lift if your a DIY. This Includes brand new top hats and will make your lift kit a turn key install. The $190 includes everything you need for a plug and play install and will save you hours of time.

    PLEASE NOTE ADDING THIS OPTION WILL ADD 1-2 DAYS TO SHIPPING TIME AS ALL COILOVERS ARE ASSEMBLED IN HOUSE.

    100% USA made, uses stainless steel fittings, DOT coated, uses stainless steel braided hose, 3000 PSI tested, 24” long
