    I have 2015 offroad dcsb. Im thinking about 5100@0 with ome 885. Will this give me 2.5" or 3"? I've read that top plate spacers MIGHT be needed for SOME dc to achieve 3". What are some bad things about top plate spacers?

    Would the ride quality be much worst if I were to get 1/4" top plate spacer to get the full 3" lift? Would this size top plate spacer be bad for the ome 885?

    Don't go with the top plate spacer. I did that and removed it shortly after. It creates too much angle for the CVs. It also allows for no down travel because the upper control arms are basically maxed out. I talked to OME and they do not recommend any type of spacer on top of their coils. Things are much better without it.
