    Over bump goes clank. Front shocks extending quickly, like over a speed bump, can make a noise. I'd find the post for you but I'm on my phone. If you do a search you should find a bunch of info.

    This is in regards to OME I'm assuming... I think my stock setup goes clank every time I am in my parking garage at work...

    Assuming you have a stock '99, 883s would probably give you 1-2" lift front/rear with AAL. 33"s are gonna cut it close, you'll probably have to do some trimming on the bumper as I did with my '04. Also depends on wheels/offset/backspacing as well...

    Stuff and things that make it better.
    I had to smash down the pinch weld to fit 33's, also without a ton of extra weight up front the 883's are going to ride super stiff. Might want to look into 882's or 881's.

    Other than needing the CMC, you might need to do some minor trimming.

    Alright everyone, just one more question and I'll leave you alone. Does this look right? Everything I'm gonna need? Do the brake lines come in pairs or am I right when I have 2 in the cart? I plan on getting a after market bumper, and skid plate so just planning ahead with 882s.

    So the other day while installing my fuel tank skid I noticed the plastic retainers on my Dakars are cracked/broken. Apparently I forgot to take a photo. It appears they sorry of clamp the leafs together on both ends?

    Do I need to do something about this?

    How much lift are you guys getting out of your first gen v6s with the OME 883s. I'll be putting a plate bumper on along with these coils and trying to match my existing lift which is about 2.5" I know everyone's truck is different but I'd really like to know some ground to fender measurement, or better yet a measurement front center hub to top of fender so tire size isn't being taken in effect. I'll be running the 883s with adjustable 5100s on the lowest setting. Also should i get the 5 or 10 mm spacers to get rid of the taco lean or bring it up a touch higher? I'll be doing a dif drop as well so cv angles shouldn't be a problem. Any info would be great guys. Thanks
