    Bilstein 5100 Ikon 1.5” AAL OME 2887 Coils (2”) AR Baja 17x8 0 offset
    Just thought I’d share some tidbits I’ve found out. A lot of us have seen coil sag with the 888 or 887 coils even with stock weight. I have them set at the recommended bottom clip setting of the updated 5100’s and originally was sitting at 2” of lift and it has dropped to ~1.5” 2 years later ~40k miles.

    OME (ARB) won’t entertain a warranty or any provide help if you pair them with anything other than a OME nitrocharger shock. I bought my kit as a set from ShockSurplus with the OME’s paired with the Bilstein 5100’s. As of yet they are no help with it either.

    To that point, Bilstein won't offer a warranty if you use any coils other than stock.
