    No but you have to use it if you want to start a sentence with a capital letter. So I will use shift for you people instead of caps lock.:thumbsup:

    No but you do have to use it if you want to start a sentence with a capital letter. Just thought it was easier using caps lock. Will start doing the right way. :thumbsup: Thanks for keeping my hillbilly butt in line.:D

    I am getting the OME lift for my Tacoma prerunner and I had a leveling kit on my truck and the truck never drove right since I had the leveling kit put on it would road walk bad. I had a alignment tech ck it out and he said everything looked good. He drove it around the block to ck it out and he said it was normal. So I have been driving it like that for 2 years. I got on this forum and found this thread on the OME lift. Everything I have read sounds like the OME lift and UCA's will fix my problem. Any thoughts?

    Are you running any armour? If your running a front bumper with a swing out and a cap and gear in the rear I would say so you would be level. I have a cap with a bed slide and gear and I am adding the d29xl to give the rear end some help as I am slightly sagging.

    Truck with the 886's and dakars no d29xl. No bumper only sliders and skids.
    With armour
    No bumper in case your not running one

    kinda give you an idea with the armour options if your running any.

    Sorry, yes i have a Pelfreybilt steel bumper and skid. I would like to have the D29XLs as i put a fair amount of weight in the rear during the winter months, as my plan was to load a lrg tote box with sand and mount a shovel in the event of a no traction occurrence, not just me but others. My Dakars both have (-) on them

    Another question about bump stops. I'm on a five hour flight right now. I have nothing but time on my hands... But I've be searching and searching with no luck. I KNOW I've seen the answer to this question on here before, but now I just can't find it.

    Right now I'm running Dakars and Ride Rites. I had the bags prior to the Dakars and I just don't need them now. My question is this. I want to run Superbumps with a U-bolt flip kit with the Dakars.

    I know I've seen this setup on here. Anyone know what flip kit works with the Superbumps and Dakars?

    Thank you!
