    Finally got my lift in !! 885's with Sport nitros 9000 and 1/4 spacer up front, and dakars with sport nitros 60021 in the back ! The ride is so nice! I was worried it would be too stiff, but its perfect!

    Hey guys!
    Are 886x coils best for a hybrid bumper and which? Have a trail gear stinger bumper and Warn M8000 so it's about 180-190 extra ponds over stock.

    Also does anyone have a picture of there truck flexed out with dakars and OME shocks

    Yes 886s are what you want to support that much weight. Here is a picture of flexed dakars but not with OMEs. I just wanted to show off the one tire fire :p

    Thanks...looks pretty good with that stance. You just convinced me to go 1/4" instead of 3/8".

    Yeah, this is as level as I'd wanna be. About a 1/2" rake right now.

    I hear it is different for everyone, as far as trimming to stuff tires or not. However, from what I hear people saying, most have to do a cab mount chop.

    Here is my rig: nitrochargers, 887's w/ 1/4in spacer up front. No OME in rear.

    Nice looking rig. This convinced me that when I finally get a lift I'll go with the 885s and 1/4" spacer. Just have to decide on the rear and get some money saved.

    So I've trimmed quite a bit of fender liner in the front but don't have any issues with Cab Mount rubbing.

    Stock wheels with 1.25" spacers up front.

    So a few weeks ago I started hearing a random clunk or pop from the passenger side front suspension. It got really bad Monday. I looked underneath and found a bolt from the UCA was missing so the UCA was just bouncing around up there.

    If anyone hears a clunk or pop or bang from the front suspension start looking for missing bolts!
