    I've driven OME since 1999. First on my 94 Jeep XJ and now on my 03 Taco. Ride quality and capability are worth the price of admission. I can't make a comparison to the Toytec though since I've only ever driven stock or OME.

    My one complaint of the ARB OME kit is my taco doesn't sit level. I got the heavy kit (881s) with the Dakar leaf packs. Even with Rhino lining, an ARE tonneau cover, a Thule bike rack, a hi-lift and various other gear thrown in the bed the nose sits noticeably lower than the butt. After reading through this thread I'm going to try the OME 10mm spacer kit and wait to go to the 882 springs when I get my bumper ordered.

    thanks for all the info.

    Are Dakkars for the rear a must for either setup or are the AAL sufficient?

    Both are great choices, love my ULK. Wish it provided a little more lift in the front though, and I dont know how much they would sag under a steel bumper which will be going on in the future.

    I love my OME lift and shocks. Best riding lift ive had so far.. Even better then my Toytec coilovers I had on my 1st gen.
    Shocks are way better then the 5100's also! OME ftw :)

    I think I'll be going with the OME, 885s, Dakar pack, and LR UCAs for my 08 DCSB TRD Sport 4x4. I just read through 28 pages of posts... I don't need the adjustability and am not overly concerned about the ease of installation. I'm hoping my TW network won't fail me :D. Probably won't be getting it until Christmas time though, so I MAY change my mind once or twice!

    Thanks for all the info everyone!

    What's the cheapest you can get this lift? Considering this exact lift or possibly just changing OME to the 5100's.

    Fab fours front and rear bumpers, B.A.M.F. weld on rock sliders, softopper, removed mud flaps and D-Badged everything. Icon 2.5 Extended Travel coil-overs, Total Chaos upppers, 2.0 Icon extended travel shocks with the resi's and Dekar Leaf packs.
    You will get over 3" of lift in the rear with the dakar pack. I wasnt expecting to get all of that but it looks great and will also be functional for what i want to do. Still have to bring the front up a lil more to level it all out.

    I would go OME rather then Toytec COs. If you have your eyes set on COs save up and get Icon, King, Fox, or Saws. Just my 2 cents.
