    as in, why TC UCA or why 3" lift? if the former, I picked it up for real cheap. for the latter, because I have a 3-4" in the rear and currently have 1.5" in the front and looking to even them out. and I also might as well switch from bilstein 5100+887 which are sagging while the front is apart.

    For the 3". You're 887s are only giving you 1.5"? I thought they were taller.

    Hey Guys

    My lift was delivered today and I'd like to make sure I have everything I need. I'm assuming I'll need new U bolts and will I need a new mounting bracket?

    Mine are TERRIBLE!! Like absolutely horrific how bad they squeak, and squak, and creak. I blasted them with fluid film, it only last till I go off road and wash them.

    Hey all, I'm looking to get an OME setup come the new year and just want to poke around and see other thoughts if this would be the right setup. Budget wise I'd like to stay around the 2k mark. 2011 DCSB
    I don't do anything aggressive, basic trails/overlanding/camping. When going out between the rack, RTT and gear the bed weight will likely be around 500lbs but as a daily drive the bed is usually empty or just a hard tonneau cover. Overall, looking for about that 2 inches with better than stock performance.
    884 coils
    Soft ride struts
    Medium leaf pack
    New UCAs

    Thanks

    I have an issue with my lift and bumper. I bought 887 per the spec sheet bumper w/o winch. The front has seemed to sag ever since. How do I level the truck out.

    I prevented this whole issue when I just lifted my truck I put Eibach lift coils on because I heard so many issues with these coils.

    "Issues" only happen when you pick the wrong spring rate for your application. Hanging a 150lb arb bumper of the front and expecting 887s not to sag is dumb IMO.

    My 886s have held up just fine over the last 6 years. That's with a bumper, winch, full skids, sliders, and a 93lb battery.
