    With anyone with OME-BP-51 Loft Kit, what would be the best arrangement for compression and rebound and what be a good height, with not making much adjustments to the height so i can still drive it daily on the road.
    Current setup is "stock height" from install, but still feels a bit stiff.
    Plan on putting some armor and installing a canopy and RTT so jist want to make sure height and adjustments to added weight will be cherry.
    Appreciate any input.

    mine are set at factory, think it is 2 click on rebound and compression. Preload is at 28 I think, stock was too low with the arb bumper, winch and dual battery

    tacoma double cab loaded permanently with around 500 lbs of armor plus fridge, second battery and mtn bikes. rear springs have 7 leaves

    coilover preload: 10 mm
    compression: 1-2 all around
    rebound: 4 all around

    it eats big holes as nobody's business but it is still rough on wash boards and street humps. the guys at the shop recommended lowering the reservoir pressure below 200 psi. They say it is too much pressure for such a little truck. I will be lowering preload in the front to 5 mm first since I only have 1.25 inches of drop right now.
