    For you guys running OME kits did you end up putting that 5mm trim packer in or not?

    this is why I got rid of my Pro Comp springs that the dealer had installed. I think the pro comps are 720lbs!!!! Like a rock on and off road.

    Love my 885 set up now.

    Do you plan on keeping the Dakars complete or removing the 3rd leaf in the pack. If you do remove it, it is an amazing ride AND I went back to factory ubolts since they are long enough and didn't want to cut the new U bolts after doing this.

    Hmm, i didnt realize the factory u-bolts would work after the 3rd leaf is removed. Mine are hanging pretty low but ill probably get a flip kit eventually, i might even put the leaf back in eventually. Plus aftermarket ones seem much stronger.

    " + " means the pack is slightly above factory spec , 0 is at factory spec

    18’ F150 SCREW LB 3.5 EcoBoost
    Bilstein 5100’s (x4), 275/65/20 Cooper XLT AT3’s
    Oh how I wish that was left on my porch....

    I want the full OME setup with leafs etc... My thing is I really want a full 3" or maybe even 3.25-3.5"... Would the 5100's at .85 work ok an give me that little extra I want? I have searched and haven't found much on that setup. TRDATER has 3.25 I the from with his Icon's and looks sick! I will also be doing UCA's. if really like to run some 285/70/17's and figured that would be less trimming.

    Most cush ride would be the N182's and the standard Wheelers 3 leaf

    Thats what i figured, but like the picture above some leaf packs don't have a +,-, or 0. I would assume that also means factory spec.

    Edit: nevermind, the sticker is covering where the marking would be

    I believe that is correct

    My packs have no markings

    So run the 90000 in the front and N182's in the rear that seems like a good solution. And i hope no issues with hauling the boat with regular AAl's
