    For me the reason would be... Because folks at TW said I should. And the three local shops said I should. Never I've did anyone tell me they were designed for trucks that carry heavy loads. Heck the bed is plastic!!

    It's all good. I am just replying to OZ-T to let him know why folks get Dakars who may not 'need' them since he asked.

    Can someone give me a definite answer to this please:

    OME 886x - how much lift do they ACTUALLY give when paired on 5100s @ 0 or nitrochargers. I've heard 1.75 and i've heard a full 3"

    Will be going plate bumper soon and want to decide which route I need to go for additional lift after these.

    Thanks guys

    Neither.

    886 is a 2" approx. lift coil without spacers, on a plate bumper equipped Tacoma.

    Everything is approximate until you have it on your truck.

    50mm is 2"

    I know the OME App guide says 50mm but I think they are considering that an ARB bumper with winch is applied .

    Well 1.968" of approx. lift with 110-220lbs of additional weight.

    On a stock truck, 2.5". On a non-stock truck, somewhere between the two.

    No , OME app guide says 2" with up to 220lbs

    So if your plate bumper is 100lbs or 150lbs , you will see more lift

    Not really , a 100lb plate bumper is not a stock truck , stock truck would likely see 3"

    Don't forget to mention that you're a TW member. They gave me discounts for my lift and uca's.

    Lift original price was $755, dropped it to $717.

    Uca's were $685 and dropped to $650.

    Not much, but it really helped..in my case at least. They had really great customer service too.
