    Maybe some one can give me some input?

    Currently I have 884s in the front and have 886s waiting to be installed in my garage, I was wondering if I could put the trim packer on my 886s?

    Also I had a friend with a garage do most the work when installing the 884s. I do not remember if I put a trim packer on the front or not? I was wondering if I would be able to see these just looking at my coils? I do have top plate spacers. Would the trim packer be on top or bottom of the ?coil

    I do have a hybrid front bumper on, however I did not lose much lift if any at all when installing the bumper. I'm currently looking at winches hence the switch.

    Then , yes you can run the trim packer

    You can also easily see if you have one on your current set up , it installs below the coil and looks like a thick brass coloured washer

    Downsouth motor sports has the best price on the complete OME kit when you factor in shipping i believe

    Wheelers will pre assemble the shocks/coils, i don't think DSM does that. Another option is toytec lifts but they are a little more expensive

    If I went with the whole kit with the Dakar CS047R's, would I still need the AAL? If yes, where from(link please)
