    hey, does anyone have any experience with Old Man Emu suspensions? The warranty on my truck has run out, so, i would like to put a bigger suspension on the truck, when I used to put my motorcycle in the back of the truck it was squatting... and if i put like any weight in it, the truck's suspension is on the overloads... thanks

    yeah, just whether anyone has had issues with old man emu suspensions really... just trying to figure out what to do to my rig, also, are there good companies who install aftermarket suspensions? I haven't spent much time here in Anchorage, grew up in Fairbanks, keep learning that more and more companies exist that I didn't even know existed, so, I may be kind of clueless, that said, I do know about greentree, I changed the head on one of the trucks they built years ago, but I just want to learn more about products and markets for my truck

    Depending on the OME stuff it isn't that hard to install yourself if you have some basic tools. I did my rear end myself all using OME stuff.

    Really OME has good and durable products even for Alaska.

    I'll throw another plug in for GTF if you don't want to do the install though.

    Gtf can definitely install everything for you here in anchorage. I love my ome set-up. I redid my whole suspension little over a year ago and love it. As far as the sagging issue you currently have, its non existent with mine

    thanks, good to know, unfortunately, I don't have either a garage, or more than super basic tools... plus the way I see it is if I am going to modify part of the suspension, might as well do the whole thing, and I cannot do the front end myself...

    I had a good 400+ pounds for this trip (between the rack, tent, motorcycle and gear) and had no sag whatsoever
