Combining Old Man Emu w/Fabtech 6" lift

If we could use the 1" diff drops, it would help big time. My new tires are the 315 MTZ (34.6" x12.5") & they still rub on the untrimmed Bushwackers. These flares look cool but they actually make us lose wheel well space.

 

Fatbobs huh? Thanks bro! i was searching for an alternative spacer cause I wanna keep the OME setup. IMO OME rides better than any CO I've ridden in a Taco with. So far: Icon, Donahoe, Toytec & Fabtech. OME is a proven solid company.

 

Yes the ARB is a bit heavy. I wanted it though after a Honda CRV cut me off, then I ran into him at 30mph and caused 4 grand in damage to our crap plastic front end. Took the insurance money, bought the ARB, flares and Fabtech.
This bumper is built to hit rhinos. No BS, it mounts to six different places to the frame

 

Got 4.5" spacers coming from Tuff Country. Should make it perfect

 

I know this is an older thread but what do you guys think about this ome lift and fabtech 6 inch lift combined. Those CV's angles don't look too good.

 

updates....did you ever figure it out? I was thinking of using my 885 coils with my procomp kit with 5100's. I would love to, and keep my tsb and toytec AAL in the rear combined with the procomp setup.

Thoughts?

 

I wouldn't do it.

 

Those coils shouldn't take too long to settle, considering you have that heavy bumper up front.. If you can't find anything else, have you considered pro comp's lt cv boots?
(just my .02, haven't heard anyone else bring it up yet. Crazy nice truck, btw)



Edit: didn't notice how old the thread was... Or go through all the posts

 

reason being?

Everyone always says this, but no one ever explains why or provides proof of reasoning.

 

anyone?

 

Ended up selling the OME and buying the Fabtech coilovers. The combined lift was a rough ride and the CV's were too flexed out. If I could do it all over again, I would have kept the original 3" OME kit and not gone with the 6" Fabtech.
