    Any idea how much lift the 887s will give on a stock 4x4 4 cylinder? From what I've read you get 2in with the 885s

    Does anyone know if stock/medium/heavy only apply to how much weight you are carrying up front? Trying to figure out which kit I would need. Don't have a bumper currently. Will have a steel bed rack with RTT and gear in the back.

    Email @Low Range Off-Road they are super helpful with these questions. But overall, with a a steel bed rack and a RTT (which is my exact application need), you will want to go Medium. if you add a bumper and winch, go with Heavy.

    These are the questions everyone asks about the Stock | Medium | Heavy. We will later release a Video On what Spring rate to go with. Hopefully we can help clear everyone's concerns.

    Medium would be a great Spring rate for your application.

    Hmm, I'm thinking the heavy with the left trim package for my applications
    -Canopy
    -Front bumper and winch
    -250lb driver

    That should give me plenty of room to add in 4-500lbs or more of dive gear and extra passenger and my camping gear.

    Hey guys hope you can help me out. I have a 2016 DCLB TRD offroad arriving in a week. I purchased a 2016 OME 2 inch lift in the medium load. I want to get the 255/80/17 Cooper STT MAXX's with method NV 8.5 inch wheels. Prior to the lift can they fit? After the lift should I have any issues? The place I am taking to get the lift said to stick with my stock UCA's for some reason.

    I'm not the guy you're replying too but I was also wondering. No bumper, I'm around 185. I off road the truck around once a month and I plan on using it to tow my Bronco to races. What kit would work best for that?

    I'm still at 2" front lift with 885's and 5100's, 4x4, 2.7L. And yes I have the driver side CV howl, only noticeable on very smooth quite roads with the radio off. My driver side castor is just out of spec. I'd be worried about where 887's would put me.

    I'm not sure where the 5100's place the springs as compared to OME coilover, so that would be something to look into. I do really like how the lighter spring rate (compared to stock) 885's ride with the access cab.
