    First, I'd like to say thanks to Headstrong for supplying me with OME 887/Bilstein 5100, SPC UCA's, and Deaver AAL. Installation went pretty smooth. I am getting some vibration around 20-30 mph but i knew that could happen.
    Now and before:

    Thanks. I'll have to look into that. No alignment yet but soon. I was a little worried that it was going to be too much lift but I like the look. SCS wheels are next on the list.

    Oh man it's not until you see a before and after picture that you realize how much better it looks. Beautifully done man.

    No CB drop yet. I believe the vibs are a result of the front lift because they started right after I finished the front. Not saying it won't help but I'm going to start there first after an alignment. Thanks motodude. Glad I went with the 887s over the 885s

    ECGS Bearing will probably eventually need to be done as well ( Needle Bearing ) in the front diff.
