    Checked the thread but didnt see this question, but also didnt go through all 34 pages.

    Just picked up OME 885's with billies set to 0.

    I have the 4 leaf TSB.

    I am debating a toytec 1.5 AAL or a wheelers 1.5" 3 leaf AAL. Any issues running the progressive AAL with the TSB spring? Any issues with rear brake lines with progressive AAL and TSB spring?

    1.5" in the back is what I have. No issues with brake lines regardless of which AAL you go with as they are both 1.5".

    Nice. What, if any of the OME parts have you had to replace?

    Your fins look closer together. Any noticeable wear on your cv boots?

    I should have already done the slide already. My driver side has a scuff line but my passenger boot has a gnarly deep wear line. I'll be replacing the wheel bearing on the passenger side so I might just get a new boot for it. Was there an option for a heavy duty or high angle boot? I had seen talk of it before but no part numbers.

    What's the advantage of that if it goes over the existing boot ?

    I've only seen the all pro high angle boot. I believe they only make them for the outer but from what I read some people wear through the inner before the outer.

    I lied earlier it's the inner boot.
