    I'm a big fan of OME. Shocks, coil springs and Dakar leaf springs will run about $880 before shipping. OME is a tried and true suspension system.

    How about $1000? Heard good things about the OME lift. A garage hear in WV quoted me around $600 installed using a rough country lift. He mentioned strut extensions?? No new shocks either.

    Installin the stuff yourself can be done if you want to save money on the install. I installed a full OME lift on my 2003 Tacoma and my 2010 4Runner. The install on the 4Runner took all of 9 hours and that included pulling the top plate and reinstalling it onto the OME shocks and coils. It was a bit more complicated for the 4Runner since I have the KDSS on it and I had to ratchet strap the KDSS hydraulics and pull the UCA's to get the front shocks and coils out and back in.

    Wheelers Offroad usually has good prices on the OME stuff.

    Who did you talk to? I know a real good guy in Beckley that did all my stuff. Unless you're going the DIY route.

    Gotcha..never heard anything about them. I did all my stuff at power management in prosperity, theyre really good and I like the guy really well. I've also heard of vigilante customs being really good and I think they're down in Lester.
