    person i purchased from has fabtech dirt logic coilovers set to 2.5" + 1.5" inch spacer in the front = 4 inches in front and 4 inch block spacer in the rear.

    looking to redo the entire suspension setup just trying to make the right descisions before i start hemorrhaging money.

    Go with an OME setup. Had mine for a couple nonths and I love it! A bit pricey but well worth it. Glad to see you are getting rid of the lift on lift (2.5" shocks/ 1.5" spacer) and the blocks 4" blocks???? Wowzers. My lift consists of OME nitro charger shocks all the way around, 881 coils, Deaver 1.5" AAL, 1.5" maxtrac shackles in the rear. Plus a 1" body lift. Rides smooth and way better than my previous lift.

    thanks for the suggestions.

    was looking at either full OME or bilstein/ebiach front and deaver rear.

    what would be the best rear leafp spring option for CC setups?

    i used to have an ex-cab and i ran wheelers 5 leaf in the rear, but wanted to try something different this time around.

    looked into the full deaver 8 leaf setup, but i read that it was not left/right specific and i was curious on how that works beacause as far as i know my ex cab had different arch's for the left/right leaf springs. the drivers side is more arch'ed than the passenger side i'm assuming to compensate for fuel tank being on the left. I'm assuming that if you put on 2 leaf springs with the same arc the passenger/right side would be lifted much higher than the driver/left side.

    thanks

    Currently have the topper off to redo my weather stripping on it. Also have full OME suspension in the garage waiting to be installed. So think of this as a "before" picture.

    Too many trucks and mods to list.. check builds
    The green doesnt look good with the chrome. once theyre color matched or blacked out they look the best in my opinion

    It's plastidipped. Cost was around 120-130 or so. Mine has rock chips all on the front and the roof needs repainted. Did this for the winter so the salt doesn't mess it up anymore.
