3" Lift Poll for 4x4

I thought the OME only lifts up to 2". Is there another OME part number for the 3" lift or is that with top plate spacers added?

 

I have a DCLB 4x4 and the 885x coils lifted me 2 1/2" up front without the spacers

 

ome/dakar for you

 

Then you got screwed, mine is easily 4+ inchs, you can ask Colton, he was over last weekend checking it out.

 

I didn't get screwed .

You got 1 1/4" more that you should have , did you get the extra Dakar leaf as well ?

Everybody else I've talked to on here that installed the Dakars got 2 3/4 " to 3 "

 

I bought them from Wheelers.
It says 2.75, but i did not get 2.75". The leaf pack has 5 main springs and two lower load springs.

Huh , interesting .

You're the first person I've heard of getting anymore than 3" with them .

What's your centre of hub to underside of fender measurment in the rear ?

 

Hey OZ,
Here is what they look like.

 

^^^^??

 

Its possible, that it is under four. I know for certain that the front ICON coils are messured at 3". And there is a about 1" inch of rake from the rear to the front. Now i really don't remember if the truck has a rake from the the factory or not. In the front the from the center of the wheel to the bottom of the fender is 23", and in the back from the center of the wheel to the bottom of the fender is 29".

 

23" and 29" ?

You have a 6" rake ?

 

Yeah it does not work out that way, if you put a level in the middle of the truck bed, and lift it until it is level again, it measures about an inch. I highly doubt it has six inches of rake, that would look stupid as hell.

Check out the pic on Post # 82.

I'll have to measure it again when i get home, it may be 26" don't remember.
I'm driving the hot rod today otherwise i would run outside and check.

 

Assuming you used a 4' level and did what you said , the truck would be out of level an inch in 4'

Your picture looks slightly higher than the rear of my truck .

 

6' foot level.
Yeah i was surprised as well to say the least. I was kinda hoping it would settle. Did you use the stock shackles? I did, i also have the 3 degree shims in there.

 

I have the stock shackles and no shims , my hub to fender measurement is 24 1/2 "

 

huh,

I will measure it here in a little bit, i could be way off.
I was wrong once before!!

 

Holy shit OZ, you nailed it, i was way the hell off!!
24.5 is the exact number, so i stand corrected, i have the standard lift as everybody else with the Dakars.
Its hard to find good help these days!

 

SUB'D

I have the Toytec ULK and I also like it. If the front OME's were adjustable I probably would have gone that route though (better ride fro what I've heard). For the rear I have the Dakar's. Might as well upgrade to a quality leaf pack while you are at it that won't flatten again easily.
